Like father, like son. There have been 16 family duos to play for Premier League clubs. Welcome to the club, Liam Delap of Manchester City.

The Toe Poke Daily is here every day to bring you all the weirdest stories, quirkiest viral content and most magnificent merch that the internet has to offer, all in one place.

Liam made a dream start to his professional career on Wednesday night after being named in the starting lineup for City's Carabao Cup third-round clash against Bournemouth.

It took the 17-year-old striker less than 20 minutes to score his first senior goal, latching onto a deft through-ball from Phil Foden to lash home and rubber-stamp his arrival on the scene. City went on to win 2-1.

Delap is also the first person born in the year 2003 to play for Man City -- which is just absurd.

Dream come true to make my @ManCity debut, even better to get a goal and a win. Thanks @PhilFoden for the assist
