Revealed, the Premier League’s quickest players of 2017-18 so far, with some surprising names
LEROY SANE has enjoyed an impressive season at Manchester City, scoring goals for fun as Pep Guardiola's rampant squad close-in on the Premier League title.
The flying German winger, 22, has scored 12 goals in 38 games and assisted on a hatful of others.
But on top of that, Sane is also the quickest player in the Premier League this season.
The former Schalke star has reached a top speed of 22.05mph this season - during the game against Chelsea on September 30.
Amazingly, only one other player has broken the 22mph barrier - as Crystal Palace star Patrick van Aanholt reach 22.01mph against Man United on the very same day.
Surprisingly, Tottenham outcast Moussa Sissoko is the third-fastest player in the top-flight - at 21.95mph.
The French star reached that speed on October in the 4-1 win over Liverpool.
Only one player in the top ten recorded the speed in 2018 - as players begin to tire as the season near its end.

That man is Theo Walcott, taking full advantage of his move to Everton to reach 21.89mph against Watford in February.
Completing the top five is Man City full-back Kyle Walker (21.88mph) - recorded against Huddersfield in November.
From there, the surprise names continue.
Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger (21.87mph) comes in No6 ahead of Walker - who gets on the board for a second time with his 21.85mph against Everton in August.
Wilfried Zaha (21.83mph) sits fractionally above Oliver Burke (21.83mph) and Kiko Femenia (21.82mph) to complete the top ten.
