Luke Littler missed out on attending FA Cup final due to safety concerns

Luke Littler was forced to watch the FA Cup final at home in front of his TV amid apparent fears over his own safety. The teenage darts sensation makes his love for Manchester United no secret.

The 17-year-old is a big United fan and had plans to go to Wembley for this year’s unforgettable FA Cup final win over Man City.

Littler was already in London as the final of the Premier League Darts was played there on Thursday night as he won the title following convincing victories over Michael Smith and Luke Humphries.

Littler was hopeful of being at Wembley to cheer on the lads, but he has revealed that he was not present due to fears he would be harassed by fans in attendance via Instagram.

That sound a bit excessive but what do I know?

Littler posted a photo of the match on his television, captioned: “At home watching the game for my own safety today.”
