The list of fastest players in the Champions League has been announced: What is Husanov's ranking?
The UEFA press service has released a list of the fastest players on the field in the Champions League group stage. In short, this time it's a rating that says "whoever speeds is the king."
Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappé took first place on the list - he reached a speed of 34.9 km/h. Seeing such a sprint, the defenders might even hold onto their own heart, not the ball.
The most encouraging aspect is second place: "Manchester City" defender, our compatriot Abdukodir Khusanov, with a result of 34.7 km/h, is only 0.2 km/h behind Mbappedan. This is not just a number - it means that the Uzbek footballer's name is among the elite in terms of speed on the UCL stage. In today's football, speed is not just a "run," it's a position, the right time, and the right decision. Husanov stands out precisely in these aspects.
The top ten is as follows:
1. Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid) - 34.9 km/h
2. Abdukodir Khusanov (Manchester City) - 34.7 km/h
Carlos Forbes (Brugge) - 34.3 km/h
4. Anderson Silva (Pafos) - 34.1 km/h.
5. Federico Valverde (Real Madrid) - 34.0 km/h.
6. Ricardo Pepi (PSV) - 34.0 km/h
7. Jeremy Frimpong (Liverpool) - 34.0 km/h.
8. Erling Haaland (Manchester City) - 34.0 km/h.
9. Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) - 34.0 km/h.
10. Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) - 33.9 km/h.
Gordon was mentioned twice on the list - but it's still a fact: Newcastle's winger has also gained high speed at the Champions League tempo.
Now the most interesting thing is the future. If Husanov maintains this pace and stability, he could become a defender who "shuts off" decisive episodes not only in the speed lists but also in big games. For fans, this is a simple signal: an era is beginning when the name of Uzbek football will be heard even louder in Europe.
