According to Grame Souness, Casemiro’s arrival at Manchester United will make Harry Maguire a better defender and possibly a top player.
Maguire has had a forgettable season thus far. He began the year with the United team but was quickly replaced by Raphael Varane, who has teamed up admirably at centre back with Lisandro Martinez.
After suffering an injury while representing the Three Lions against Germany last month, the England international’s World Cup preparations appeared to be in ruins.
But now that he has regained his fitness, Maguire may be able to make a comeback to the starting lineup as Qatar 2022 approaches thanks to Varane’s injury.
Souness believes that with the aid of summer signing Casemiro, who will make the defender’s job simpler due to his superior performance in defensive midfield, the defender can reclaim his best form and progress to become a top player.
“I hope Harry Maguire grabs tomorrow’s opportunity against West Ham for Manchester United because to Raphael Varane’s injury.”

I feel bad for Maguire since he has received excessive criticism. Although he has a poor run of form, he is not the only one.
“I think the kid has what it takes to be a great player, and I think he’ll be a much better defender with Casemiro playing in front of him, who has a real defensive mind and can spot trouble.” It will be fascinating to see if he recovers.
After going on against Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League on Thursday night, Maguire is expecting to start the Red Devils’ match against West Ham on Sunday at Old Trafford.
