On April 18, Speed posted a video on his YouTube channel documenting his visit to Old Trafford to sign a contract with Manchester United. In the video, the club's Chief Executive, Omar Berrada, appeared alongside Speed, adding an air of authenticity to the signing process. A die-hard fan of Manchester United, he has long supported the club, with his interest peaking during the tenure of his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, who rejoined the team in 2021. Hailing from Ohio, Speed has made multiple trips to the UK to attend matches, showcasing his unwavering dedication to the Red Devils.
Watkins himself admitted to being blindsided by the contract offer, expressing his disbelief and excitement during the signing process.
He started the video saying: "Alright, boys I just got this call from Man United. They told me to pull up to the office, I am super confused, I am like, 'What's going on?' I just got a call from Man United and it sounded like a manager, some business person."
