Speed is not just proficient, it is natural and these 10 turbocharged footballers have been on a total warpath. These are the top 10 fastest footballers.
10. Mohmed Salah (35 km/h)
From scoring magnificent goals to flying past defenders like they’re not even there, it is fair to say that Mohamed Salah can do it all.
Salah signed for Liverpool in 2017 and has been a true sensation in the Premier League ever since. Putting memories of his underwhelming two years stint at Chelsea behind him.
You an just notice his physical difference and how his career has progressed over the years. With him eventually becoming an unstoppable force of nature, Salah indeed has been a loveable footballer.
9. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (35.5 km/h)
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has made a name for himself with some of the top clubs in Europe on the back of some truly rapid pace, pace that he has consistently used to blast past some of the sport’s most experienced defenders.
This Barcelona player is a real life supercar of an athlete and he is proving to be the perfect link up to his fellow speedster Adama Traore making them one of Europe’s most terrifying duos.
8. Kyle Walker (35.71km/h)
Defending against a counter attack is a nightmare if you don’t have the legs for it but for Manchester City, Kyle Walker is the perfect man for the job.
Walker, even at the age of 31, doesn’t seem to be loosing any steam as he is well known for his incredible defense as well as his marauding runs in the field.
7. Erling Haaland (36.04km/h)
If pace was a person then it would be Erling Haaland. Haaland is a magnificent player with natural instinct and is capable of eating up the entire length of the pitch in no time.
Even when his pace isn’t enough to get the job done, his sheer strength allows him to brush past his adversaries and when both fails, it just happens that he has an absolute rocket of a left boot to fall back on.
Haaland at age 20 set a Bundesliga speed record during his Dortmund side’s 3-2 victory over Stuttgart.
6. Leroy Sané (36.51 km/h)
There was a time when it seemed like Leory Sane was setting speed records every time he put on a jersey.
Sane was called up to the German National team just after two years as a first team player. He then signed a 37 million pound contract with Manchester City where he used his God-given speed to help City in winning back to back Premier League titles.
Sane is one of the few left-footed players to play on the left wing and this gives defenders a very different type of challenge.
Leory Sane appears to be even quicker since moving to Bayern Munich with an average speed of 36.51 km/h and there are chances that he will beat that speed soon.
5. Kylian Mbappe (36.08 km/h)
A world cup title, three consecutive domestic goal scoring awards and having a speed of a cheetah, Kylian Mbappe is a generational talent even at the age of 23.
The interesting thing about this French International is that his improvements are not slowing down. When opposing defenders come face to face with Mbappe, they would need to put on their running shoes. And now with Neymar and Messi by his side, PSG is indeed in a good position to dominate with such a dangerous trio.
4. Adama Traore (36.08 km/h)
Adama Traore is a masterpiece. 99.9% of the time, a muscular athlete like Traore would never be expected to have such a world class pace but the case is different with Adama Traore.
Adama is an expert dribbler and a clinical passer and his performance seems to be going up with each passing season.
3. Marcus Rashford (36.3 km/h)
Marcus Rashford might be having his inconsistency issues but he is as quick as flash.
Despite just being 24 years old, Rashford still stands out as one of the greatest United academy graduates in the last decade.
In 2015, Rashford busted out of the gates to make an instant impact on the first team and he is the fastest player in the United dressing room.
2. Ashraf Hakimi (36.48 km/h)
Hakimi’s move to PSG was one of the best signings of the Season when they stole him away from Intern.
Hakimi’s natural pace allowed him to mould a specially well Antonio Conte’s style of counter-attacking football and after just one season in Series A, he scored goals on six different occasions.
Hakimi even at the age of 23 performs with the confidence of a player in his prime.
1. Alphonso Davies (36.51 km/h)
This Bayern Munich star is the fastest football player on this list. Alphonso Davies is not just considered as one of the finest left-backs of the era but is also without a doubt, one of the greatest Canadian exports to have ever achieve a major success in Europe.
At the age of 19, Davies had already got his hands on the Champions League medal as he played a key role for the German giant as they saw off PSG in the final. His teammates gave him the nickname “the road runner” and you can all agree that he is a successful and creative defender.
