Max Dowman has been officially recognised with three Guinness World Records before he has even turned 17, with the Arsenal teenager receiving his certificates ahead of this weekend's Premier League trip to Leeds United.
The England U19 international, already regarded as one of the brightest prospects in world football, has been included in the new Class of '27 in the Guinness World Records Football Edition 2027, which places him alongside names like Lamine Yamal, Jude Bellingham, Cole Palmer, Hannah Hampton, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe.

Three records, one teenager
Dowman's first accolade is for becoming the youngest player ever to feature in the Champions League, a record he set aged 15 years and 308 days away to Slavia Prague last season. That beat the previous mark held by Youssoufa Moukoko, now at Turkish side Corum, by 75 days.
He also holds the record for the youngest goalscorer in Premier League history, having scored a memorable solo goal against Everton in March at the age of 16 years and 73 days. His third record came in May, when he became the youngest player to win the Premier League title, aged 16 years and 144 days.
