Who, in your opinion, is the fastest player in Liverpool? The accessibility of football statistics has significantly increased, but, detailed physical data such as distance covered and sprints are still mostly undisclosed.
Micky van de Ven achieved the quickest time recorded in the Premier League since the beginning of the 2020/21 season, as announced by the league last month. In January, the Tottenham defender surpassed Manchester City full-back Kyle Walker’s record by reaching a maximum speed of 37.38 kilometers per hour during the match against Brentford.
The Reds currently occupy the fifth position in the standings, with Dominik Szoboszlai achieving a top speed of 36.76 km/h at Molineux in September. However, velocity in the sport of football can be assessed using many methods. Frequently, we discuss a player’s ability to accelerate rapidly or maintain high speed over extended distances. Regarding the first point, the prominent figure in Liverpool seems to be someone who may not be immediately considered in this conversation.
