The teenage midfielder has enjoyed a historic breakthrough, becoming one of the youngest players ever to make a significant impact at the highest level of English and European football. Dowman has been officially recognised by Guinness World Records for three extraordinary achievements.
Three Guinness World Records for Max Dowman
The Arsenal academy graduate holds the record for the youngest player to appear in the UEFA Champions League, having featured in the competition at just 15 years and 308 days old.
