Breaking Records: The Youngest Premier League Debutants


Think the youngest Premier League debutants include Wayne Rooney, Cesc Fàbregas, or Michael Owen? Think again. These legends may have burst onto the scene as teenagers, but none hold the title of the youngest ever.


Topping the list is Ethan Nwaneri, who stunned the football world by debuting for Arsenal at just 15 years, 5 months, and 28 days in September 2022. Before him, Fulham’s Harvey Elliott set the bar high, playing at 16 years and 1 month, a record that briefly held the spotlight.


Others on the list include Matthew Briggs (16 years, 2 months, 7 days) for Fulham in 2007, Izzy Brown (16 years, 3 months, 27 days) with West Brom, and Aaron Lennon, who kickstarted his career at Leeds United at 16 years, 4 months, and 7 days.


This new generation has rewritten history, showing that age is just a number. These trailblazers remind us that in football, the future starts young.
