Saka cautioned before derby; Udogie named in Tottenham
Posted : 22 September 2023
Based on data from Pro Football Focus, Destiny Udogie, an Italy U21 star with Nigerian roots, emerges as Tottenham Hotspur's swiftest player ahead of their crucial match against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium this Sunday.
Considering only players with at least 400 minutes of playtime in the 2023-2024 Premier League season, Udogie is outrun by only three: Antonee Robinson from Fulham, Ameen Al Dakhil of Burnley, and West Ham's Emerson.
An anticipated matchup in the upcoming North London derby is between Arsenal's inverted winger, Bukayo Saka, and Spurs' left-back Udogie. This recent speed metric underscores Udogie's speed advantage, emphasizing his dual strengths in pace and defense.
Udogie, wearing the number 38 for Spurs, has consecutively assisted in away games against Bournemouth and Burnley. Rounding up the list of the Premier League's top ten speedsters are Matty Cash, Ollie Watkins, Pedro Neto, Nelson Semedo, Connor Roberts, and Milos Kerkez.
