• Former goalkeeper is still club’s youngest ever debutant
• Gaskell was 16 years, 19 days old in his first outing

Manchester United’s record-breaking former goalkeeper David Gaskell, has died aged 84. Gaskell was just 16 years and 19 days old when he came on for United at Manchester City’s former stadium Maine Road, following an injury to first-choice keeper Ray Wood, in October 1956. He still holds the record for the youngest player to make their debut for the club.

The youngster went on to keep a clean sheet in a 1-0 victory as United won the Charity Shield.
