World Darts Championship sensation Luke 'The Nuke' Littler meets Declan Rice and Aaron Ramsdale after the Arsenal stars asked to grab a picture with the 16-year-old amid fairytale run

Just weeks ago, very few people would have heard of the name Luke Littler ahead of the World Darts Championship.

Now after the 16-year-old's fairytale run at Ally Pally, even a pair of England international footballers are wanting to meet the youngest ever player to reach the last-16 at the tournament.

The teenager has shot to stardom since the tournament began winning boundless fans for his efforts - with his latest victory coming against Canada's Matt Campbell on Wednesday.

After exceeding his own expectations, he now faces a clash against either Jim Williams or 2007 champion Raymond van Barneveld.
