When Shoretire replaced Greenwood at the age of just 17 years and 23 days, he beat the previous mark set by Norman Whiteside back in 1982.

Whiteside was 17 years and 131 days when he played in Europe for the first time, and he went on to feature in over 200 games across all competitions for the Manchester outfit.
