Kylian Mbappe tops the list of the 10 fastest footballers in the world

PSG's Kylian Mbappe has been ranked as the fastest footballer in the world according to data from French newspaper Le Figaro.

Clocking in at an impressive top speed of 36km/h, the French forward has come out ahead of well-known speedsters such as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Leroy Sane.

Inaki Williams is perhaps a surprise entrant at number two on the list, with the Athletic Bilbao man recording a 35.7km/h speed, coming very close to Mbappe but just losing out.

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah is also in the top 10, with the Egyptian recording 35km/h

Manchester United were looking to splash £81million on the forward last summer, however he later signed a new contract with the Spanish club instead.
