EPL: Ten Hag names Manchester United's most important signing
Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has named midfielder Casemiro as the most important signing to help transform the club's culture.
Ten Hag said this ahead of Man United's Carabao Cup Round of 16 with Burnley on Wednesday night at Old Trafford.
Man United have signed Christian Eriksen, Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martínez and Antony in the summer transfer window.
Remember Casemiro joined Man United from La Liga champions Real Madrid.
"[I told the Man United hierarchy] there was no spirit in the squad, I didn't see any team dynamics in the squad," said Ten Hag at Voetbal International.
“The mental toughness was very low. The fighting spirit, fighting for each other, putting the team first – that didn't really exist in the team. more important to me when I took over.
"To get that in the locker room you have to have personalities, which is why signing Casemiro was so important. He can speed up the process because he knows what you need to do to win titles."
