Anthony Martial Is Premier League's Fastest Player with Leicester's Jamie Vardy

Manchester United star Anthony Martial and Leicester striker Jamie Vardy have both been recognized as the fastest footballers in the Premier League this season, according to EA Sports' Player Performance Index

Statistics show Vardy accelerated his way into the record books, after clocking speeds of 22 miles per hour over five seconds, as he helped Leicester beat West Ham 2-1, back in August.

And France international Martial matched the England striker's sprint earlier this month when Louis van Gaal's side drew 3-3 with Newcastle
