Arsenal's Max Dowman earns three Guinness World Records

Arsenal prospect Max Dowman has received three Guinness World Records honours following his remarkable contributions during the Gunners' 2025/26 Premier League championship season. Over the course of that 2025/26 campaign, the Arsenal teenager set marks as the youngest footballer to feature in the Champions League, the youngest scorer in the Premier League and the youngest winner of a Premier League title. His first goal at senior level arrived in March, when he produced a notable solo run and finish on the counter at home against Everton. In November, while still 15 and before turning 16, he played in the Champions League victory over Slavia Prague. He ended the season with six Premier League outings, a total sufficient to secure a winner's medal, and he was subsequently included in the matchday squad for the Champions League final. Dowman's extraordinary debut season in senior football has now been marked with a trio of Guinness World Records. He is listed as the youngest-ever Premier League champion at 16 years and 144 days, the youngest scorer at 16 years and 73 days, and the youngest person to play in the Champions League at 15 years and 308 days. By becoming the Champions League's youngest-ever participant, he surpasses the prior record set by Borussia Dortmund's Youssoufa Moukoko by a margin of only 75 days. Dowman has also begun the current campaign impressively, scoring twice as the Gunners beat Ipswich 4-2 in the Carabao Cup.
