Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has built a title-challenging squad over the last couple of years.

Since joining in December 2019, Arteta has rebuilt the club both on and off the pitch.

There’s now a genuine belief around the Emirates that Arsenal can win a Premier League title first the first time since 2004.

Many of their first-teamers are considered world class and they have a wide range of profiles in every position.

With that said, it’s just come to light that they actually have one of the fastest players in the entire Premier League.

Gabriel Martinelli is the fifth-fastest player in the Premier League

According to the Premier League, Arsenal wide player Gabriel Martinelli is the fifth fastest player in the entire Premier League.

Martinelli only trails Timo Werner, Erling Haaland, Anthony Elanga and his North London rival Micky van de Ven.

The 13-cap Brazil international has endured a topsy-turvy period but managed to get on the scoresheet against Leicester last time out.

It was his first Arsenal goal for six months.

Gabriel Martinelli may have his confidence back after Leicester goal

Martinelli looked relieved more than anything when he netted against Leicester on the weekend, so it clearly meant a lot.

Now, Arteta will be hopeful his confidence has returned and he can start to build some momentum in front of goal.

Arsenal are next in action on Saturday as they take on Southampton at the Emirates.
