Manchester United ace confirms Bellerin is the fastest player he has ever played against
Champions League September 30, 2016England and Manchester United ace Marcus Rashford has admitted the fact that Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin is the quickest footballer he has ever played against.
The 18-year-old sensation started in the Manchester United game against Arsenal last season and scored two goals which helped the Red Devils to claiming all the three points from Arsenal at Old Trafford.
Bellerin also started that day, and it was the first time Rashford faced the Spaniard. Following his amazing recent performances for both club and country, I personally think Rashford has the potential to become a world-class player.
Rashford has also proved he can do it on the international stage as well, as he’s netted seven goals this season already this season.
The England ace confirmed that Bellerin is the fastest player he has played against so far in his career.

When asked who was the quickest player he’d seen, Rashford replied:
“Hector Bellerin, I was on the left & I knocked it past him, got to the ball but then I couldn’t turn because I could see him coming…”
The 21-year-old ace has broken Theo Walcott’s club speed record and he has established to become one of the best right backs in the Europe, his recent performances have caught the attention of Barcelona as the La Liga giant are supposed to be looking to take him back to Spain.
