Matthew Briggs was a defender at Fulham who spent fifteen years at the club throughout his younger years. Upon pushing for the first team, he always found himself as backup for the left back position and thus only made a handful of appearances in his relatively long stay. On the final day of the 2006-07 season, he became the Premier League's youngest ever player, coming on in the 77th minute away at Middlesbrough on the final day of the season; he was just 16 years and 65 days old.
