Man United's fastest players in 2022/23 revealed, ft. Rashford, Sancho & Antony | OneFootball

Manchester United have a number of rapid players.

Usain Bolt, a huge Man Utd fan, shared his belief that Marcus Rashford is the quickest player in the squad right now.

He then claimed that the Englishman would beat him in a race over 20 metres.

Speaking ahead of Soccer Aid on Sunday, Bolt told Man United's official website: “Rashy should be the quickest.

"I think Rashy might have me over 20 metres, max maybe 30, because as footballers you train to be really quick, explosive. But not further than that [laughs].”

Rashford has been named United's fastest player - but only just.

The 25-year-old recorded a sprint speed of just under 36km/h in 2022/23, making him ever so slightly quicker than Dalot.

The two players are 12th and 14th respectively among the Premier League's fastest players in 2022/23.

Antony rounds out the podium places while Shaw and Malacia make up the top five.

Garnacho is extremely quick but just about scrapes into the top 10 - proving just how many rapid players United have.

Usain Bolt names Man Utd's four best players this season

Bolt was also asked to name the Man Utd players who have stood out for him this season.

He proceeded to give four names.

The 36-year-old said: “For me, it’s Casemiro and Rashy – he’s really, really done well.

"De Gea has made a lot of great saves, I have to say. He kept us in a lot of games. So I must say those are the three players that stand out. And Martinez, I think, also has really brought a different energy to the defence.”
