West Brom youngster set to be youngest Premier League debutant

West Bromwich Albion midfielder Isaiah Brown will become the youngest player to appear in the Premier League if he makes his debut against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, reports SkySports. Baggies chief Steve Clarke has confirmed Brown will be part of his squad for the trip to West London and he could be named on the bench at the tender age of 16 years and 54 days.

If the England U17 international does feature at some point, he will surpass Fulham's Matthew Briggs' previous record, set in 2007, by 11 days.
