Wolves' Adama Traore is TOPPED as the Premier League's fastest player this season

Adama Traore is renowned as the Premier League's speed king but the Wolves winger hasn't topped the charts so far this season.

The Spaniard's powerful sprints down the wing have been a lethal weapon for Wolves but even his top speed is no match for one top-flight summer signing.

Traore's best of 22.12mph was topped by Southampton's Adam Armstrong who has been travelling at a record 22.15mph.
