The youngster Casemiro claims will be 'great for the next 10 years at Manchester United'

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has praised teammate Alejandro Garnacho, claiming the teenager has a huge future ahead of him.

The Reds duo both featured in Saturday's FA Cup final defeat against Manchester City, with teenager Garnacho especially impressive from the bench during his late cameo.

Garnacho has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign at Old Trafford this season and Casemiro was quick to praise the youngster when asked about his talents.

He told Argentinian newspaper El Destape: “Recently he has renewed with the club, he is a player for whom the club contributes a lot.

''He has the affection of us as players, but we also have to be careful because in the end, he is 18 years old. You have to go calmly so as not to burn stages.

''We know that he is a great player, but he’s also great for the next 10 years at Manchester United, we’re sure he’s going to be a great player here and he’s becoming very important to us.”

Garnacho recently signed a new five-year deal at the club, keeping him at Old Trafford until 2028.
