Arsenal's teenage midfielder Max Dowman has etched his name in Premier League history, becoming the youngest player ever to clinch the title at the remarkable age of 16 years and 144 days. This achievement surpasses the previous record held by Manchester City's Phil Foden.

Dowman, who has made sufficient appearances this season to qualify for a winner's medal, was among 40 Arsenal players and staff recognized for their contribution to the title win. This record-setting accomplishment caps an already extraordinary breakthrough campaign for the young midfielder. Earlier in the season, Dowman also set a record as the youngest Premier League goalscorer, netting a solo goal in Arsenal's 2-0 victory over Everton in January, when he was 16 years and 73 days old.

On the final day of the season, Dowman further cemented his place in the record books by becoming the youngest player to start a Premier League match at 16 years and 144 days, earning a spot in the starting lineup against Crystal Palace. His inclusion in the starting XI was a significant milestone, adding to his growing list of achievements.

The article also highlights other young title winners in the Premier League's history. Following Dowman and Foden, the list includes Manchester City's Rico Lewis, who was 18 years and 188 days old when he won the title in the 2022/23 season, and Brahim Díaz, also of Manchester City, who was 18 years and 283 days old in the 2017/18 season.
