Who is United's fastest young player?

One of the fastest players at Manchester United returned to action at the weekend when Ro-Shaun Williams captained the Under-18s in the 'mini-derby' against Manchester City.

The 2-0 defeat to City was Williams's first appearance of this season, after injury had delayed his bid to build on an excellent 2015/16 when the teenager even got as far as being named as a first-team substitute, for the home matches against West Ham in the FA Cup and Liverpool in the Europa League.

The centre-back spent a large part of the campaign with the title-winning Under-21 squad and often showcased his acceleration and natural athleticism - attributes which helped him to make local headlines a couple of years ago.
