Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimares has been labelled the hardest-working Premier League player after it was revealed that he has covered the most distance so far.

There have been 11 Premier League matches so far this season and the Brazil international has clocked a significant 122.8km so far, more than any other football in the league, writes the Mirror.

Flynn Downes and Youri Tielemans share the fifth spot for distance covered this season, each clocking 116.5km. Downes has become a fan favourite at Southampton after joining on loan from West Ham despite the team’s struggles.
