A statistic has revealed the top 10 fastest English Premier League players for each position as the 2022/23 tournament draws to a close in a few weeks.
After a short international break, action returns in the English Premier League this weekend with some nail bitting fixtures.
Rant HQ understands that most teams are having only ten games remaining in the season, and the players have a limited time to catch up to the current speedsters.
From the defence to midfield and striking positions of each club, some players have proven their prowess when it comes to speed, compared to the others.
According to stats given by Squawka, Arsenal’s Kieran Tierney, Chelsea’s Mykhaylo Mudryk, and Forest’s Brennan Johnson are the fastest players overall.
