Last month, Arsenal’s Ethan Nwaneri made Premier League history after becoming the youngest player to feature in England's top-flight division at 15 years and 181 days.
Introduced from the bench late on against Brentford, Nwaneri overtook Liverpool's Harvey Elliott, who previously held the record at 16 years and 30 days when he played for Fulham back in 2019. Arsenal may have won the match 3-0, but it was Nwaneri’s name that made the headlines afterwards.
There’s no denying that it would have been an incredibly special day for him and his family, but representing one of the world’s biggest clubs on one of the world's biggest stages wouldn’t have been as easy as it looked for the youngster.
