Declan Rice outperforms Bruno Fernandes in running charts, catching Arsenal’s attention.

The Premier League is known for its intense matches, and the players who compete in it are some of the fittest in world football. Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes covered an impressive 402.5km across his 37 appearances this season, making him United’s marathon man and putting him in sixth place overall. However, a potential newcomer at Arsenal has run even further. West Ham’s Declan Rice managed to run 412.9km in the same number of appearances as Fernandes, putting him in third place behind Brighton’s Pascal Gross with 418.9km and Southampton’s James Ward-Prowse, who leads the way with 433.4km. Rice’s impressive fitness levels have been a key factor in keeping West Ham in the Premier League, and he has also enjoyed his most successful campaign in terms of goal contributions, scoring four and assisting two. Arsenal is reportedly willing to break the British transfer record to sign Rice this summer, a move that could help lead them to top-flight champion status for the first time since 2004.
