Tottenham and Man City men shine - fastest players in the Premier League ranked

talksport.com, today at 09:00
Forget Usain Bolt, some of the fastest athletes on the planet are strutting their stuff in the Premier League.

Year after year the English top flight gets more and more competitive and with that fans are treated to seeing some of the world's best athletes in action.

But who are the fastest Premier League stars in 2024/25?

Opta, via Squawka, have revealed the speediest players in each position - including between the sticks.

Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers is the fastest goalkeeper having reached a top speed of 31.14km/h.

Unfortunately Travers wasn't fast enough to reach the top 10 fastest Premier League players, so here they are, ranked by their fastest pace in kilometers per hour.

Forget 3D simulators - two Premier League speedsters raced and there was one clear winner

Astonishingly, neither Kyle Walker or Adama Traore have made the cut for the top 10 despite competing in a pretty epic foot race earlier this season.

But the fastest list will still leave you gasping for breath.

10. Amadou Onana, Aston Villa (35.54km/h)

Unai Emery was clearly keen to sign the midfielder when he splashed out £50million to sign him from Everton.

With pace, power and technical ability to burn it's no surprise that he's being seen as the complete package.

9. Gabriel Martinelli, Arsenal (35.57km/h)

Arsenal are blessed with technical quality, but in the Brazilian, they have someone who terrifies defenders.

If you're facing Martinelli you better hope he doesn't hit full speed or you could be in trouble.

8. Antonee Robinson, Fulham (35.63km/h)

Wing-backs are renowned for being among the fittest players in world football.

With the US international also having pace to burn, it's no wonder that he's among the most highly-rated left-backs in the division.

7. Timo Werner, Tottenham (35.69km/h)

The German forward gets a bad rap for his lack of end product in the Premier League.

But what he lacks in finishing ability, the Spurs forward certainly makes up for in speed and direct running.

6. Erling Haaland, Man City (35.74km/h)

Is their anything that the Norwegian striker isn't brilliant at?

As well as being an insanely good finisher, Haaland can also claim to be one of the fastest stars in the Premier League - not fair, is it?

5. Mykhailo Mudryk, Chelsea (35.79km/h)

The Ukrainian star has started to find his feet under Enzo Maresca and that could be down to focusing on his strengths.

One of Mudryk's main qualities is his ability to run at pace with the ball - something that makes him very difficult for defenders to manage.

4. Anthony Elanga, Nottingham Forest (35.9km/h)

Forest have been the Premier League's surprise package this term and Elanga has been a key part of that.

As well as boasting an impressive end-product, it's the former Man United star's raw speed which makes him a proper handful.

3. Carlos Forbs, Wolves (36.57km/h)

He may have only started one game for Wolves this term, but the forward is absolutely rapid.

Forbs loves to get on the ball and run at his opponents - something which could prove very useful for Wolves if they utilise it in the right way.

2. Matheus Nunes, Man City (36.72km/h)

He may not be a regular starter under Pep Guardiola, but when Nunes goes, he really goes.

The midfielder played on the left flank shortly before the November international break and recorded the second-fastest sprint speed in the Premier League in doing so.

1. Micky van de Ven, Tottenham (37.12km/h)

There's a reason why Spurs can claim to have one of the Premier League's most complete defenders.

Strong, dominant and confidence on the ball is great, but with pace to burn Van de Ven is an absolute nightmare for attackers.
