Israeli Prospect Anan Khalaili Not Among Premier League's Fastest Players
As the English football break continues and the Nations League kicks off, a Daily Mail analysis has identified the fastest players in the English league. Bradley Barcola leads the list with a top speed of 35.8 km/h.
Israeli winger Anan Khalaili's fastest sprint this season has been recorded at 33.1 km/h, placing him outside the top 20 fastest players. For context, Erling Haaland ranked 20th with a speed of 34.6 km/h. The fastest defender identified was Milan van Ewijk of Coventry.
Last season, Khalaili's top sprint speed in the Champions League was 32.6 km/h. Reports from training sessions suggest he has reached speeds of 34 and 35 km/h. As a right-back, Khalaili's sprints are typically longer, which could potentially lead to higher peak speeds after acceleration.
