The Brazil international joined Manchester United during the summer transfer window from La Liga giants Real Madrid.
Since then, the midfielder established himself as a key player in Erik ten Hag’s squad, helping the team to lift the Carabao Cup title this season.
Casemiro’s latest goal against Bournemouth saw United getting closer to their hope of playing Champions League football this season. They need just one point to secure a Premier League top-four spot.
Neville believes United would have not been in their current position if not having Casemiro on their ranks.
“I could not think of a player who has had a bigger impact on their team. I look at United’s season, they are in the top four, they won the Carabao Cup and they are in the FA Cup final,” former Red Devils’ star said on Sky Sports.
“I genuinely don’t think they would be anywhere near top four or doing what they are doing in those competitions without Casemiro. He makes them 30 per cent better,” he added.
