10 Fattest Footballers In The Premier League Right Now
6. Branislav Ivanovic - BMI 26.6
Is this the reason why Branislav Ivanovic is struggling for Chelsea this season? The Serbian defender is 1.95m tall and weighs 91kg meaning that he has a BMI score of 26.6. The 31-year-old, whose contract expires next summer, might be a contender for worst-right back in the Premier League at present and his fitness has certainly decreased since the successful 2014-15 season. The full-back has now been dropped by Jose Mourinho after he appeared unable to stop any Premier League winger from running past him and perhaps Ivanovic needs to get some conditioning training sharpish.
