The ranking of the fastest players in Ligue 1 highlights an unexpected guest.

The Professional Football League takes stock of the speed peaks observed in Ligue 1. The result is a ranking of the 10 fastest players in the championship.

After 26 days, this honor goes to one of OM's winter recruits: Faris Moumbagna – a player of imposing size who also knows how to show off his technique and liveliness. During the 24e day and the big victory of the Olympians in Clermont (1-5), the person concerned was flashed at 36.37 km/h. No one is doing better this season so far.

Mbappé out of the Top 10

The Marseillais is ahead of two Brestois: Mathias Pereira Lage (36.35 km/h) and Romain Del Castillo (36.32 km/h). Clermontois Andy Pelmard and Montpellier Mousa Tamari next in a close second, with 36.31 km/h recorded on the radar.

Still sixth in the score taken last January, Kylian Mbappé – who we would expect in this ranking as obvious – leaves the Top 10 closed by Toulouse's Shavy Babicka, with 36.08 km/h on the clock.

1. Faris Moumbagna (OM): 36.37 km/h (03/02/24, D24)
