The Premier League’s top 10 fastest players over the last three seasons have been identified.
Unexpected results include a promoted ace coming in second and an unlikely Liverpool star coming in third.
Fans of English soccer’s top division like watching a superstar go down the field.
Nothing compares to someone sprinting down the wing before assisting a teammate or, even better, scoring on their own.
The top three speedsters in the league during the previous three seasons have been compiled by Stats Perform’s statisticians after sweating the details and calculating the numbers.
Unsurprisingly, Kyle Walker of Manchester City leads the pack with a breathtaking pace of 37.31 km/h.
He will be 34 next season, but he still outruns younger guys in a foot race.
Walker is not showing any signs of slowing down after signing a new contract with City.
Chiedozie Ogbene takes the second position on the list in contrast.
The Irish forward has only played four times in the Premier League, all of which have come this season with newly promoted Luton Town.
Ogbene, however, continues to leave his imprint, zipping along the field at an amazing 36.93 km/h.
Another newcomer to the top division finishes third elsewhere.
Only one month ago, Dominik Szoboszlai moved from RB Leipzig to Liverpool.
He was able to reach a high speed of 36.76 km/h from midfield, but he has already had a significant influence at Anfield.
Antonio Rudiger, a former Chelsea defender who is currently playing for Real Madrid, also makes the list.
Brennan Johnson of Tottenham, who reached his peak pace with his former team Nottingham Forest, is just behind him.
Following them are Adama Traore of Fulham, Tariq Lamptey of Brighton, and Mo Salah of Liverpool, all of whom reached 36.64 kilometers per hour.
Mykhailo Mudryk of Chelsea and Anthony Gordon of Newcastle, previously of Everton, round out the top ten.
And they could not be stopped if you put them all on a team with a quick sweeper goalie.
