Man United's fastest player? Red Devils' new teenage wonderkid is absolutely rapid as he shares footage of him obliterating 100m race in just 11.1 seconds

Silva Mexes joined the likes of Kai Rooney in Manchester United's youth ranks recently and fans are already excited to see what the young talent has to offer. The 14-year-old posted a video of himself breaking a personal best for a 100-metre dash, clocking in at 11.1 seconds. For context, Usain Bolt's best-ever sprint was 9.58 seconds. For someone so young, his speed is certainly something to behold.

It is going to take a lot more than just pure speed to make it at a club like Man Utd. INEOS have put their trust in a young and raw talent who could blossom into something special. Upon signing, he posed with the famous No.7 shirt worn by David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo. Even if he has just half the talent of those two players possessed, the Red Devils have got themselves a gem.

Mexes is the son of football icon Robbie Earnshaw. The popular goalscorer - who famously is the only player to have scored a hat-trick in the Premier League, all three divisions of the English Football League, the FA Cup, League Cup and internationally for Wales - will be proud to see his son make such a significant step in his career so early and will be hoping to see him live up to the hype in the coming years.

It is back to the grind for Mexes as he looks to continue developing. His dad will be able to give him plenty of tips as he trains up with the Red Devils and maybe we will see him in the Premier League soon. Arsenal's Ethan Nwaneri is currently the youngest debutant in the competition, making his first appearance at 15, which is something the speedster can aim to beat.
