List of youngest and oldest teams in the Premier League this season 2023/24 and average team players age
Some of the oldest active football stars, such as Tim Ream at Fulham and Thiago Silva at Chelsea, play for their Premier League teams each week to increase their chances of winning.
Teams still try for a balance of composed older players and eager younger players to enhance their chances of success, despite the fact that the adage “you’ll never win anything with kids” was disproved around 30 years ago.
Which is the youngest squad in the 2023/24 Premier League season?
At the start of the 2023–24 season, Chelsea had the Premier League side with the youngest average age (23.7 years). After going on an unending spending spree under new owner Todd Boehly, who prioritised purchasing some of the best young players in the world, Chelsea has the youngest average-age roster in the Premier League this season.
This summer saw the continuation of that trend with the additions of Angelo, Robert Sanchez, Nicolas Jackson, Lesley Ugochukwu, Christopher Nkunku, and Axel Disasi, all of whom are under 25 years old. The squad’s average age has also decreased thanks to the return of players like Levi Colwill, who spent the previous season on loan at Brighton & Hove Albion.
Which is the oldest squad in the 2023/24 Premier League season?
The first player acquired by David Moyes’ squad during the summer transfer window was Ajax midfielder Edson Alvarez. The departures of Declan Rice, Gianluca Scamacca, and Nikola Vlasic, all of whom are 25 or younger, will have dramatically raised the squad’s average age even though the Mexico international won’t turn 26 until October.
The Hammers team also has seven players that are 30 years of age or older, which is one of the highest totals in the English Premier League.
