Lionel Messi is one of the world's most talented footballers and his top speed is said to be around 45 miles per hour (72 kilometers per hour).

What is Ronaldo's fastest speed?

Who is faster Messi or Ronaldo? Cristiano Ronaldo had clocked a speed of 33.95 kilometres per hour against Spain in the FIFA World Cup in Russia, four years ago.

Who is faster Messi or Mbappe?

It is his speed of thought that impresses us as much as anything. But in terms of pure leg-blurring pace, Mbappe is the speedier of the two. Though Mbappe would win that 100m race, if the track was littered with obstacles and they had to dribble their way to the finish line, I would back Messi.
