Top ten fastest Premier League stars this season revealed with Chelsea ace Mudryk in second and Rashford dropping out
CHELSEA spent a huge £98million on signing Mykhailo Mudryk with his pace one of his biggest strengths.
However, he is NOT the quickest man in the Premier League - with that award going to a player involved in the relegation battle.
The Ukrainian international arrived at Stamford Bridge in January and it took him at a matter of minutes to showcase how rapid he is.
He set a record for the fastest speed in the Prem this season in his debut against Liverpool, despite spending just 20 minutes on the pitch.
Mudryk, 22, clocked in at an astonishing 22.76mph, per - beating the previous quickest speed of Anthony Gordon by 0.2 seconds.
But the winger has since been dethroned by Nottingham Forest star Brennan Johnson, who boasts a top speed of 22.80mph.
