In a recent interview with CazeTV, Al-Hilal superstar Neymar Jr. revealed that Manchester United midfielder Casemiro is the most difficult player to get past, according to Sportskeeda. The Brazilian attacker, who has played against Casemiro several times in his career, praised the midfielder's exceptional defensive skills.
Neymar and Casemiro have a history of facing each other on the pitch, having played against each other 11 times in club matches, with both winning four times. They have also played together for Brazil, combining for two goals in 57 appearances.
Casemiro's impressive defensive skills have made him a key player for both Real Madrid and Manchester United, and Neymar's praise is a testament to his abilities. The midfielder's ability to read the game and make crucial tackles has made him a nightmare for attackers to face.
Neymar's admiration for Casemiro is not surprising, given their history of competition on the pitch. The two players have pushed each other to be their best, and their respect for each other is evident.
In the interview, Neymar also spoke about his admiration for the Premier League, a league he has previously expressed interest in playing in. However, given his current salary demands and his move to the Saudi Pro League, a move to the Premier League seems unlikely for the 32-year-old attacker.
Despite this, Neymar's praise for Casemiro highlights the midfielder's exceptional skills and solidifies his reputation as one of the best defensive midfielders in the world.
