Chelsea's new recruit, midfielder Mykhailo Mudryk in his debut match for Chelsea against Liverpool (0-0) set a record for the speed of running in the current season of the English Premier League (EPL).
According to Opta Sport, Mudryk's maximum speed in that game was 36.63 kilometers per hour. That's more than the previous record holder, 21-year-old Everton midfielder Anthony Gordon (36.61 kph).
Recall that in the match against the Merseysiders, which took place on January 21, Ukraine national team winger came on as a substitute in the 55th minute, without notable actions, but he earned praise from many experts and fans.
Earlier, the media published the commentary of Darijo Srna, the current Donetsk Shakhtar director, Mudryk's previous club. The former Shakhtar Donetsk defender said that the price for the player would have been much higher than the €100 million paid to Chelsea had it not been for the situation in Ukraine.
