Luke Littler presented shirt at Old Trafford after historic World Darts Championship performance

Images of Luke Littler already appeared at Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur stadiums during the World Darts Championship, but last weekend "The Nuke" finally visited the stadium of his favourite football club.

Littler was invited by Manchester United to stop by at Old Trafford. The Englishman was allowed onto the pitch and presented with a shirt bearing the English prodigy's nickname. Of course, the shirt bore the number 180.

The 16-year-old teenage sensation is known to be a big fan of Manchester United. Several players both past and present of the club. Including Gary Neville and Jonny Evans sent video messages to Littler during the World Darts Championship to wish him well. Littler eventually managed to reach the final of the World Darts Championship as the youngest player ever. Littler did lose the final 7-4 to Luke Humphries.
