At 16, He’s Done What Foden Couldn’t: Meet the Teen Who Just Shattered a 14-Year-Old Premier League Record

Arsenal’s Max Dowman has written his name into Premier League history. At just 16 years and 144 days old, he became the youngest player ever to win the title overtaking Manchester City’s Phil Foden and breaking a record that stood for 14 years.

The teenage midfielder qualified for a winner’s medal after enough appearances this season.

But that’s not all. In January, aged 16 years and 73 days, he became the youngest Premier League goalscorer ever with a stunning solo strike against Everton. Then, on the final day, he became the youngest starter in Premier League history.

Here are the 10 other teenagers who lifted the trophy though none as young as Dowman:

1. Phil Foden – 17y, 350d (Man City, 2017/18)

2. Rico Lewis – 18y, 188d (Man City, 2022/23)

3. Brahim Díaz – 18y, 283d (Man City, 2017/18)

4. Gaël Clichy – 18y, 294d (Arsenal, 2003/04)

5. Rafael da Silva – 18y, 319d (Man Utd, 2008/09)

6. Nicolas Anelka – 19y, 57d (Arsenal, 1997/98)

7. Neco Williams – 19y, 104d (Liverpool, 2019/20)

8. Phil Neville – 19y, 105d (Man Utd, 1995/96)

9. Ryan Giggs – 19y, 161d (Man Utd, 1992/93)

10. Curtis Jones – 19y, 178d (Liverpool, 2019/20)

Max Dowman isn't just the future of Arsenal. He's the present. And the record books will never look the same.
