LUKE Littler is tipped to rake in £50million over his career after a sensational first year.
The 17-year-old has already made up to £3m in prizes and deals, and is on target for more.
Before Littler's world darts championship final last night, one analyst said: "That is only going to get bigger. He is here to stay."
AFTER Luke Littler's sensational rise to the world darts final last year at the age of 16, many fans wondered if it would be a one-off.
But the youngster showed he is here to stay after booking a place in last night's championship showdown with Dutchman Michael van Gerwen, 35.
And Littler, nicknamed The Nuke, is being tipped to earn £50million over his career if winnings, sponsorships and endorsements continue as they are. The 17-year-old earned £lm in prize money last year, despite his final loss to Luke Humphries, and is believed to have added £2m in lucrative sponsorship deals.
