If someone asks, “Who is the fastest player at Euro 2024 ?” An easy answer will be Kylian Mbappe. But no, the French striker isn't even in the top 7. Some names on the list will surely surprise you.

7. Mykhailo Mudryk (Ukraine) - 36.63 km/h

The winger has not reached his potential at Chelsea. Mudryk hasn't really impressed fans with his dribbling, shots, and positioning but his speed has been quite remarkable. Mudryk recorded a top speed of 36.63 km/h.

6. Anthony Gordon (England) - 36.68 km/h

Newcastle United fell short of their fans' expectations last season. The Magpies finished bottom of the Champions League group and failed to qualify for next season's European competitions. But one of their bright spots was Anthony Gordon. He was involved in 21 (goals + assists) and was also the fastest player in the team. In the game against Burnley, the winger reached a speed of 36.68 km/h.

5. Antonio Rüdiger (Germany) - 36.7 km/h

The centre-back was elected to the Champions League team of the season given his importance to the success of Real Madrid this year. He is not only known for his defensive abilities but also for his speed. Rüdiger recorded a top speed of 36.7 km/h.

4. Dominik Szoboszlai (Hungary) - 36.76 km/h

The Hungarian midfielder has integrated well into the team and contributed 11 goals in his first season at FC. The opponents of the Hungarian national team will find it difficult to catch up with Dominik, because he reaches a top speed of 36.76 km/h. He recorded this stat in Liverpool's game against Wolverhampton this season.

3. Pedro Neto (Portugal) - 36.86 km/h

Pedro Neto played some good games in the Premier League last season. The most memorable was his performance against Tottenham when the Portuguese crossed almost the entire playing field and handed over an arch. However, the forward reached the highest speed - 36.86 km/h - against Luton in the game.

2. Kyle Walker (England) - 37.31 km/h

Fans jokingly say Kyle Walker runs at the speed of light. Even though the biggest compliments go to Phil Foden, Kevin de Bruyne and Erling Haaland, it is Walker's speed that often saves the Citizens' lives in critical situations. The personal record of the defender is currently 37.31 km/h.

1. Micky van de Ven (Netherlands) - 37.38 km/h

The Dutch defender is currently considered the fastest footballer in Europe. This feature helps him to quickly recapture the ball after losing it and stop potential attacks by the opponent. He is a stroke of luck for Tottenham's trainer Postecoglou, who likes to play a high-line to create artificial offsideside. The fast player is perfect for this. During the season 23/24, he accelerated to 37.38 km/h.
