At what age did Brian Madjo become the youngest UEFA Super Cup scorer?

The story behind the answer

Brian Madjo became the youngest UEFA Super Cup scorer at 17 years and 212 days.

The Aston Villa forward scored against Paris Saint-Germain in the 45th minute of the 2026 final. His volley, made from John McGinn’s cross, brought Villa level before Paris eventually won 2–1.

Madjo’s age was a record because it was substantially younger than the previous benchmark. Patrick Kluivert had held the record after scoring in the Super Cup at 19 years and 220 days.

Madjo’s appearance carried another distinction: UEFA’s match report described him as the youngest player ever to start a Super Cup game. His performance therefore produced two age-related milestones in the same final, although the scoring record is the specific achievement tied to 17 years and 212 days.
