Leicester City 's Jeremy Monga became the second-youngest Premier League player when he made his senior debut in Monday's 3-0 loss to Newcastle United , Arsenal 's Ethan Nwaneri remains the youngest Premier League player in history, having debuted in the competition when he was 90 days younger than Monga. He had to wear a blank shirt on Monday because it is sponsored by an online cryptocurrency gaming platform. Britain's Gambling Act 2005, which underwent a review in 2020, prohibits players under 18 from wearing kits displaying gambling sponsors.
Monga, an England under-16 international, made his senior debut at 15 years, 271 days old. Leicester, who suffered an eighth straight loss in the league without scoring a goal, are 19th in the standings, 15 points below the safety zone..
