Wesley Fofana insists Chelsea teammate Mykhailo Mudryk is faster than Kylian Mbappe.
Mudryk recently joined the Blues from Shakhtar Donetsk in an £88.5million deal despite heavy interest from Arsenal.

The 22-year-old Ukrainian is yet to score for his new club, and despite flashes of raw talent, fans are yet to be convinced.
However, Mudryk’s pace has left an incredible impression on centre-back Fofana.
The forward clocked a 36.63km/h top speed on his Chelsea debut at Liverpool, immediately breaking the record for the 2022/23 Premier League campaign.
France defender Fofana has played with PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe, who is undoubtedly among the most electric players in world football.
But according to Fofana, Mudryk would leave Mbappe chasing shadows in a footrace.
The two Chelsea stars sat down to discuss Mudryk’s FIFA statistics, including his pace rating of 94.
