On Tuesday, Arsenal's teenage sensation Max Dowman likely made another bit of history - becoming the youngest goalscorer for England Under 19s, breaking Ryan Sessegnon's record from 2016.

When asked by BBC Sport, the FA could not definitively confirm it as a record, but conceded he is probably the youngest to notch for the under-19s.

The 15-year-old, who does not turn 16 until December, has already featured for Mikel Arteta's first team, making his Premier League debut as a substitute in the 5-0 win over Leeds United in August.

Dowman's rise has been rapid, from Hale End standout to first-team appearance and now a record-breaking England goalscorer.

This is just the latest milestone in what is shaping up to be a hugely exciting journey for one of the Gunners' brightest young talents.
