Benjamin Luke Woodburn (born 15 October 1999) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for EFL League Two club Salford City and the Wales national team.
Woodburn joined the football academy of Liverpool when he was seven years old. Nearly a decade later, upon making his senior debut in 2016, he became the third-youngest player ever to play for the club and, in just his second appearance, broke Michael Owen's long-standing record to become Liverpool's youngest goalscorer. He subsequently went on loan to Sheffield United but was restricted to just eight appearances before returning to Liverpool. The following season, he joined Oxford United on loan.
Woodburn represents Wales at international level and became the nation's second youngest goalscorer behind Gareth Bale when he scored on his senior debut in 2017.
