Former Chelsea star, Claude Makelele, has named Man Utd star Casemiro as the better defensive midfielder than him.

This comes as Makelele was recently asked in a social media post by Goal to remain silent until he heard the name of a better defensive midfielder than him.

He remained silent on names like Roy Keane and Gennaro Gattuso.

However, the 52-year-old spoke when Casemiro’s name came up, saying:

“Yes. Because he is young, it is a new generation. He reminds me of my generation.”

Casemiro is signed by Premier League club Manchester United.

The Brazilian joined Man United from Real Madrid in the summer of 2022 for a reported fee of £70 million

He went on to win several trophies with the Blues during his time at Stamford Bridge.
