This German player named the fastest at Chelsea

Chelsea player Trevor Chalobah has named Germany international and striker Timo Werner as the fastest at Stamford Bridge.

Chalobah made this known ahead of Chelsea’s Champions League quarter-final tie with Real Madrid on Wednesday.

He also revealed that Chelsea teammates call Werner ‘Timo Turbo’ because of his speed.

Werner joined Chelsea from RB Leipzig for around €50m million in 2020.

It is unlikely that Werner will start for the Blues when they host the Los Blancos at Stamford Bridge today.

“I’m always working on my speed. After every game, when we get into training, it will be on the screen: the max speed we hit, the work rate, the speeds, the decelerations, everything.

“My highest would probably be 34km/h. That is pretty quick, to be fair, but I think the highest is Timo Werner.

“I think he’s got 36 or 37. ‘Timo Turbo’: that is what we call him,” Chalobah told FedEx’s Next in Line (via UEFA).
