Casemiro spoke with manutd.com about his young teammate, who has worked closely with the Brazilian over the past two years.
He stated, "Kobbie is the present and the future. I think that he is one of the best no.8s and can be for that for the next 12 years. He is a player I really like.
"He always wants the ball. It is true that football can’t change your mentality, but Kobbie demonstrated that he hasn’t changed his focus once. He has to continue focusing like he is now and continue playing the important role he is now. But what a player he is, he is a great player.
"He has demonstrated this, in the Euros final with England, he has demonstrated it in finals, he scored in the FA Cup (in the 2024 final win over Manchester City). He is the present and the future."
Meanwhile, Casemiro also is tipping Matheus Cunha to become more and more important for United.
Asked about his favourite assist he's made this season, he replied: "I don't know if it's my favourite, but the assist I like is one I did this year for Cunha because he is a player that I have a lot of affection for, and he wanted to open his scoring account.
"And I was the first to give an assist, and I am sure he will always remember it, as he is a player that is going to be so important for United. And I was able to provide with him the assist."
