Chelsea star Raheem Sterling has revealed he was surprised by how quick Chelsea teammate Mykhailo Mudryk is after watching his debut performance against Liverpool.

The Ukraine international recorded the fastest run in the Premier League this season at 36.63 km/h and the second-fastest in the Champions League at a similar speed, only behind Alphonso Davies’ 37.1 km/h.

“From the Anfield game [in January], I was watching at home, I was like ‘bruh…’” Sterling told Chelsea’s YouTube channel when speaking about Mudryk’s pace.

“I haven’t played with him much to see him live, so I’m looking forward to that.”
