Casemiro is 'NOT the answer' to Manchester United's problems, insists Liverpool legend Didi Hamann - as he claims it will take 'years and years' of backing new boss Erik ten Hag in the transfer market before they will challenge for big trophies

Liverpool legend Didi Hamann has hailed Manchester United new boy Casemiro as a great player, but warned that the marquee signing will not lead to title success.

Casemiro has joined Manchester United this week for a fee of £70million from Real Madrid, after an otherwise difficult transfer window during Erik ten Hag's first season in charge of the Red Devils.

Speaking to the Mirror ahead of United's game against Liverpool at Old Trafford on Monday, Hamann explained his view that signing Casemiro will not turn Ten Hag's squad into title contenders:
