Unprecedented Move: Arsenal Provide Security Escort for Teen Star
Arsenal've taken extraordinary step by appointing personal bodyguard for their rising talent Max Dowman who's only 15 year old.
According to The Sun, the youngster now moves with security escort to shield him from over enthusiastic fans.
While personal guards are usually reserved for established stars, Dowman’s sudden rise has forced Arsenal to break tradition. The bodyguard was even spotted on the touchline during Arsenal’s league clash with Man United.
Dowman made headlines on 23 August when he came on as substitute for Noni Madueke in Arsenal’s match against Leeds. At 15 year and 229 day, he became the 2nd youngest player in PL history behind teammate Ethan Nwaneri who debuted at 15 years & 181 days.
The young forward has quickly earned the nickname "Golden Boy" among fans and is now seen as 1 of the club’s brightest hopes for the future.
