Wolves have a number of very speedy players on their books at the moment.
In recent times, the club have brought several stars to Molineux who certainly have an impressive turn of pace.
A couple have left in the form of Pedro Neto and Adama Traore. The two former wingers would often get fans out of their chairs with their remarkable bursts.
Traore was especially rapid, and he also had the power to boot.
But these days, Wolves still have plenty of speedsters in their squad and actually, a few of them are among the quickest players in the whole Premier League.
Carlos Forbs is the fastest Premier League forward
Forbs was recently revealed to be Wolves’ fastest player this season, but now data has emerged about his speed in the context of all Premier League players.
According to a report from Squawka, Wolves winger Carlos Forbs has officially been clocked doing 36.57km/h this season.
That actually makes him the fastest forward player in the whole Premier League.
He’s been recorded going quicker than Anthony Elanga (35.9km/h), Erling Haaland (35.74km/h), Timo Werner (35.69km/h) and Gabriel Martinelli (35.57km/h), who make up the rest of the top five.
Squawka also report that Forbs has 3.56 attempted take-ons per 90 minutes, completing 2.54. The latter places him in the top 10 among Premier League players.
Of all players regardless of position in the Premier League, Forbs places third behind only Micky van de Ven (37.12km/h) – who is the fastest player in Premier League history – and former Wolves midfielder Matheus Nunes (36.72km/h).
Wolves fans may have expected Matheus Cunha to be somewhere among the fastest forwards. But it seems to be that the Brazilian is quicker with the ball than without it.
Yerson Mosquera and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde two more speed demons for Wolves
Forbs is not the only jet-heeled player from Wolves to feature in the article by Squawka.
In the list of defenders, Yerson Mosquera – who is sadly now out for the season with an ACL injury – is the third fastest this season having clocked a speed of 35.32km/h.
Only van de Ven and Fulham’s Antonee Robinson (35.63km/h) have been quicker.
In terms of midfielders, Nunes is the quickest as mentioned previously. But Wolves’ Jean-Ricner Bellegarde actually comes fifth so far this term, with a speed of 35.05km/h.
Ahead of him are Mohammed Kudus (35.31km/h), Amadou Onana (35.54km/h) Mykhailo Mudryk (35.79km/h) and Nunes.
