Erik ten Hag believes Casemiro is ready to force his way into Manchester United's strongest team after handing the Brazilian his second start for the club against Omonia Nicosia.
The 30-year-old has had a slow start to life at Old Trafford after a £70million move from Real Madrid, with Scott McTominay starting five Premier League games ahead of him.
But Casemiro starts in the Europa League in Cyprus tonight in what is a strong side and Ten Hag insists he is now up to speed from a fitness point of view and accustomed to United's style of play.
