'No chance' - Wesley Fofana claims Chelsea teammate is faster than PSG star Kylian Mbappe

Chelsea star Wesley Fofana has claimed that one of his club teammates is quicker than PSG forward Kylian Mbappe. The latter has always been praised for his pace since breaking through at Monaco, but the addition of quick thinking and technical skill has led him to become one of the top players in the world.

Fofana had played against the 24-year-old in his time with French club Saint-Etienne, where he had the task of dealing with the forward. It has been a while since they faced off, but the pair could soon be lining up alongside each other after reports surrounding a potential senior call-up to the France senior squad for Fofana.

While that is a possibility, he may be able to reassess the pace the forward has once again after claiming one of his fellow Chelsea stars is faster. That was January signing Mykhailo Mudryk, who joined for a huge £88.5million fee from Shakhtar Donetsk, showing plenty of promise early on.
