11 Youngest Players in Man Utd History (Ranked)
Dec 5, 2024
Key Takeaways
David Gaskell was the youngest player in Manchester United's history and kept goal for the club 120 times.
Jeff Whitefoot was a famous Busby Babe who became the youngest player for Man Utd, playing a total of 95 appearances.
Angel Gomes, although talented, left Man Utd after just 10 games due to contract issues, achieving success in France.
With a record 20 English league titles (including 13 Premier League titles) and three Champions League crowns to their name, Manchester United are undoubtedly one of the most iconic football clubs on the planet.
It is a status that the many players who have worn the club's colours over its almost 150-year history have each, in their own way, helped to justify. Some have gone down in history for their decisive performances, others for the number of appearances they have made for the Red Devils, while several have distinguished themselves by their precociousness.
That rich history of giving young players a chance looks set to continue with current United manager Ruben Amorim seemingly particularly impressed by 16-year-old defender, Godwill Kukonki, who was named in the match-day squad to face Arsenal on December 4th in the Premier League.
In this piece, GIVEMESPORT has chosen to tell the story of these players in this ranking of the 11 youngest Red Devils in history to have made their debut for the legendary Mancunian club.
