Did the math box to box:
Not sure what stadium it is but for benefit I'm using Napoli's Pitch which is 110m long (Atalanta's is 105m)
| Time (box to box) | 8 | s |
| Distance (box is about 16.5m) | 110-33 = 77 | m |
| Speed | 77/8 = 9.625 | m/s |
9.625x3.6 = 34.65 | km/h |
The fastest players in the PL are clocked between 35 - 37km/h. Hojund at full speed is decently fast, especially for such a big guy.
Here's an article on the fastest players for each area of the pitch last season:
