Luton attacker Chiedozie Ogbene has been declared the fastest player in the Premier League so far this season, with Hatters team-mate Tahith Chong also ranked in the top 10 quickest speeds during a top flight encounter.

The 26-year-old summer signing from Rotherham United, who is a doubt for the weekend's home clash against Crystal Palace with ankle and hamstring issues, was clocked at just short of 37km/h during the 1-0 defeat at Fulham back in September, registering 36.93km/h.
