The Brazilian has certainly impressed fans in recent weeks with his combative and hard-working performances, yet blistering speed is not something we’d automatically associate with him.



Impressively, Fred was clocked sprinting at 37.29 kilometres per hour during last weekend’s 1-1 draw with Everton at Old Trafford, according to statistical experts Opta.



That is now the no.1 speed that has been recorded in United’s top-flight fixtures this campaign, with Marcus Rashford now second on the list after his dash of 36.32 km/h against Crystal Palace.
