Darts prodigy Luke Littler has revealed he received a message from his Manchester United heroes after reaching the World Cup final.
The 16-year-old became the talk of the sporting world when he became the youngest player to take part in the Alexandra Palace Darts Show. His stunning performance continued with a 6-2 win over 2018 champion Rob Cross in the last four, and the teenager will face new world number one Luke Humphreys in Wednesday night’s final.
Warrington’s Little, who turns 17 in 19 days, has revealed the message he received from the great and good at Old Trafford after beating Kroos.
“Of course I have a lot of followers now.” “It was crazy because I got messages from Manchester United before the game against Barney from Luke Shaw, Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville and Jonny Evans. “The people I love, especially my club Manchester United, wish me every success.”
The teenage sensation has captured the imagination of audiences with his incredible scores, suspenseful performances and even his love of pizza and kebabs. But ‘The Nuke’ will now face pre-tournament favorite Humphreys for the Sid Waddell Trophy after the 28-year-old won three of his last four majors. He defeated Scott Williams 6-0 in the semi-finals, who then defeated Michael van Gerwen.
