You’re coming into a bad dressing room – Roy Keane warns Casemiro
Roy Keane has warned Manchester United’s new signing Casemiro about the club dressing room.
The Irishman was speaking before their Premier League game against Liverpool on Monday, which they won 2-1.
Casemiro was at the stadium for the match, but was not registered in time to participate.
“I think he’s a good signing,” Keane told Sky Sports.
“They’ve paid a lot of money, he’s 30 years of age, he’s got a five-year contract.
“If you’re a player out there and Man United come looking for you, you know you’re going to get a great deal.
“It’s a start but they need some more, they need more help.
“The problem is for any player coming into Man United now, as good as they are, they’re coming into a bad dressing room, they’re coming into a bad group of players.
“We keep mentioning it in the last year or two, these players don’t want to run, they don’t seem like a good group. That’s a problem for any player, however good they are.
“They’re desperate, but I think he is a quality player. You can look at the bigger picture and go obviously it’s a lot of money and a long contract, the agents out there must be delighted dealing with Man United, but when you’re desperate you’ve got to pay over the odds.”
