Casemiro explains difference between Premier League and La Liga - says one is more difficult

'When asked to compare the Premier League and La Liga, Casemiro said: "'Well, honestly, it's different. "Especially because of the different circumstances, like the intensity of the games here.

''I'm not trying to underestimate La Liga, but the games here are much more difficult, there's a higher number of transitions.

''In Spain, they usually prefer tiki-taka football as they call it there. Here there are more transitions, more attacking moves.

''Each league has its own qualities and traits. I know each has its own traits and I respect both [leagues]. But the most important thing is for players to adapt as quickly as possible.''

Casemiro spent almost a decade in Spain with Real Madrid, winning 18 major titles. He is on the brink of winning his first trophy in England.
