According to The Athletic, 15-year-old Doman was selected for the Arsenal roster, and the Premier League stipulates that he can participate if he is 15 years old before August 31.
Arteta included Doman on the roster of home games against Leeds United after he quickly advanced to the Arsenal youth training echelon. Daoman made his senior team debut in the club's pre-season, making a substitute against AC Milan in July, and in the match against Newcastle four days later, he made another substitute and won a penalty, with an eye-catching performance.
Doman also joined the team to enter the first round of the Premier League last weekend, but was not selected for the final 20-man roster. This time against Leeds United is his first time being selected for the Arsenal senior team's official roster.
It is not clear whether Dorman will play, and the club and coaching staff will carefully manage his growth. But he performed steadily and outstandingly in training last season and in recent months, and this time is also a step in a new journey.
According to Premier League regulations, players can participate as long as they turn 15 before August 31, when the season begins. Since Daoman was not yet 15 years old last season, he was not qualified to play at that time.
Even if Dorman gets the chance to play, he will not set the record for the youngest Premier League player. His teammate Envanelli made his debut at the age of 15 years, 5 months and 28 days against Brentford in September 2022, and still maintains this record.
