Instead, it is new Liverpool teammate Jeremy Fripon who won the award following the launch of the 2025\/26 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Both stars were featured in the Reds&#8217; 4-2 victory over AFC Bournemouth in the opening match of the campaign, with Sara scoring a 94th minute goal to put the game in bed shortly after Federi Cochiesa recovered Liverpool&#8217;s lead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Arne Slot&#8217;s team had previously competed for a 2-0 lead, but Antoine Semenyo&#8217;s brace, who had suffered racist abuse from supporters early in the conflict, was at risk of dumping three points to Merseyside.<\/p>\n<p>The performance highlighted that there is much to do when Liverpool is solidifying their defensive structure with a new signature and trying to restore the balance that was proven last season. However, there is no doubt about the horrifying pace the Reds can attack their team at the counter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>With Cody Gakpo, Hugo Ekitike and Salah on the front line, and Florian Wirtz takes on the 10th place role, Liverpool has the pace and energy to turn defense into offensive in the blink of an eye, but in fact they are the fastest right backflimon on the team, completely in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>According to Fotmob, he recorded a top speed of 36.1 km\/h against Bournemouth, with Tottenham centre back Micky Van de Ven taking second place at 35.6 km\/h. Newcastle forward Anthony Gordon recorded the third-highest speed in the league in a 0-0 draw with Aston Villa, reaching 35.5 km\/h.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Sarah was previously considered the fastest player in the Premier League, but the Egyptians may now be literally running to get his money back that title. However, in the short term, 33-year-olds are not even in the top 10 at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the top five were Gabriel Martinelli (35.5km\/h) and Anthony Elanga (35.3km\/h). Chelsea&#8217;s Pedro Neto (35.1 km\/h), Brentford&#8217;s Kevin Shade (35.0 km\/h) and Leeds&#8217; Daniel James (34.9 km\/h) were next in the rankings, followed by Spurs&#8217; DJed Spence (34.8 km\/h) and Manchester United&#8217;s Matheus cunha (34.5 km\/h).<\/p>\n<p>As the Premier League continues to be at a higher pace and attacks the offensive race, it is still unclear if even more swift stars are signed by clubs on either end of the table before the transfer window closes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2097417\/liverpool-news-mohamed-salah-jeremie-frimpong-fastest\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mohamed Sarah lost his crown in the fight to become the fastest player in the Premier League.
