Casemiro spoke to the Manchester United media about his relationship with his new teammate, Uruguayan Manuel Ugarte, with whom he shares a position in midfield. The Brazilian said he is satisfied with the growth and understanding they are starting to have on the pitch.
Brazilian midfielder Casemiro said he is very pleased with how his relationship with new Manchester United team-mate Manuel Ugarte is developing.
The pair have been in the starting XI in the Red Devils’ four games under interim manager Ruud Van Nistelrooy and appear to be starting to get on well together on the pitch.
“I have a good connection with him. When one goes forward, the other covers, and vice versa. That is how it has to be – one compliments the other. I think the other games have been like this,” said Casemiro.
“He is a great person. He’s a good kind of person. Then, little by little, he is also showing that he is a national-team player from Uruguay, a team that has good players He has total respect, not only mine, but from all the players. And, well, it is good for us to have good players, so we have a much better squad,” he added.
This connection between the two players is very good news for the newly appointed coach Ruben Amorim who will try to make the most of it for the benefit of Manchester United.
