Luke Littler Continues Impressive Run at PDC World Darts Championships

16-year-old darts sensation Luke Littler is making waves at the PDC World Darts Championships. Last night, he secured his place in the last 16 with a 4-1 victory over Matt Campbell, earning himself a whopping £35,000 in prize money. This marks the biggest earnings of his young career.

Emotional Celebration and Photo Op with Donny van de Beek

After his victory, Littler broke down in tears while embracing his mom in celebration. But he quickly regained his composure and had a special moment with Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek. The Dutch footballer posed for a photo with the young darts prodigy backstage, with both of them smiling for the camera.

Social Media Posts and Reactions

Littler shared the photo on his Instagram story, expressing his admiration for van de Beek. The footballer, who has 2.8 million followers on Instagram, also shared the picture, along with a handshake emoji. Littler also posted a photo of his celebration alongside Marcus Rashford, the well-known Manchester United and England forward.

Van de Beek's Potential January Exit

While Littler continues to impress in the world of darts, van de Beek's future at Manchester United remains uncertain. The 26-year-old midfielder has seen minimal playing time this season, with just two minutes in the Premier League. Reports suggest that he has completed a medical with German club Eintracht Frankfurt and is likely to join them on loan. Manchester United may also be willing to take a significant financial hit on the player, with the possibility of a £9.5 million option for Frankfurt to make the deal permanent in the summer.

It seems that both Littler and van de Beek are making headlines for different reasons, but their paths crossed at the PDC World Darts Championships, creating a memorable moment for both sports stars.
