Mason Bennett – Derby County
Mason Bennett made Derby County history when he started their match away at Middlesbrough on October 22 2011 as he became the youngest player to appear for the club aged 15 years and 99 days old.
Still at Derby County, the highly-regarded youngster has made 34 appearances for the Rams, scoring twice and providing one assist. Since his debut at such a young age, Bennett’s footballing education has been a series of short loan deals to Bradford (13 games, 1 goal), Chesterfield and Burton Albion (16 games, 1 goal), where the youngster is currently seeing out hs latest loan.
The youngest play, who tops out our Sizzling Six, managed to shave 44 days off Bennett’s starting age.
