The fastest players in the Premier League this season have been recorded.

Opta have collated the most rapid speeds clocked in the top flight this term with some of world football's quickest players plying their trade in England.

The list features a mixture of stars you'd expect to be among the fastest - and a few you certainly wouldn't.

With players clocking up speeds in excess of 35km/h - pacemen are still a crucial part of the make-up of any top side.

So, without further ado, here are the players who have been setting off the speed guns this term...

12. Isaac Mbenza (Huddersfield Town)

Top Speed: 34.95 km/h

The Huddersfield winger recorded this time early on in the season, before the Terriers' campaign tailed off and ultimately ended in relegation.

11. Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

Top Speed: 34.95 km/h

An unsurprising player as we’ve seen him all season flying down the wing with his electric pace taking on defenders. It’s more surprising he’s not higher up the list.

10. Patrick Van Aanholt (Crystal Palace)

Top Speed: 34.96 km/h

The Crystal Palace full-back may be a surprising one for some people, but it’s clear to see how rapid this lad is beating the pace of wingers like Sadio Mane and Raheem Sterling.

9. Sergio Rico (Fulham)

Top Speed: 35.01 km/h

Probably the most bizarre one in the list, Sergio Rico, Fulham's GOALKEEPER, has somehow recorded a faster pace than Mohamed Salah.

8. Divock Origi (Liverpool)

Top Speed: 35.04 km/h

A man who’s been in divine form in recent weeks, Origi clocked a very fast time. Will he stay on Merseyside this summer?

7. Felipe Anderson (West Ham United)

Top Speed: 35.11 km/h

The Hammers' summer signing has shown electric pace at times this season, getting fans up off their seats at the London Stadium.

6. Gerard Deulofeu (Watford)

Top Speed: 35.13 km/h

The Spaniard has shown his pace at Everton and Barcelona in the past, and has shown no signs of slowing down at Vicarage Road.

5. DeAndre Yedlin (Newcastle United)

Top Speed: 35.17 km/h

Known for his pace - there aren't too many full-backs you'd sooner have tracking back than the American.

4. Leroy Sane (Manchester City)

Top Speed: 35.18 km/h

What a handful Sane can be. It’s certainly no surprise to see him on this list - frequently showing his pace on the flanks for City.

3. Ruben Vinagre (Wolverhampton Wanderers)

Top Speed: 35.20 km/h

He's only played 18 times for Wolves this campaign - but that hasn't stopped him clocking up the third-fastest speed in the Premier League.

2. Kyle Walker (Manchester City)

Top Speed: 35.27 km/h

We've seen him bomb up and down the right flank for Spurs, City and England over the years. No surprise, this one.

1. Timothy Fosu-Mensah (Fulham)

Top Speed: 35.32 km/h

Yes, really!

Fosu-Mensah recorded the top speed in the Premier League this season with a whopping 35.32 km/h. Will it be enough to persuade Manchester United to give him another go?
