Littler has enjoyed a stunning rise to stardom and is already the most-followed darts player on Instagram with over one million followers.
He received good luck messages from past and present United players during his time at Alexandra Palace.
The teenager was a guest at the Premier League match against Tottenham at Old Trafford earlier this month, where he met legendary former boss Sir Alex Ferguson.
But he has now been introduced to the first-team squad at the Carrington training ground.
In a video released by United, Littler was filmed shaking hands with every player before they began their training session.
But afterwards, he got the chance to flex his muscles on the darts board against Maguire and Eriksen.
Sky Sports released footage of the trio taking on a number of different darts challenges.
Maguire and Eriksen were both given the opportunity to score as high as they could with nine darts.
The England defender it 171, including a triple 20, while Eriksen racked up 136 with his nine.
Littler then had his chance to chase down the United pair and he beat Maguire's score with just three darts, hitting a stunning 180 at the first time of asking.
Several other members of the United squad, including Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund, were watching on and went wild as he recorded a maximum.
Littler lapped up the moment as he turned towards the players and stretched his arms out wide in celebration.

Littler, who won his maiden professional title at the Bahrain Masters last week, also discussed his meeting with Ferguson and trip to Old Trafford.
He told MUTV: "Unbelievable, I met Sir Alex Ferguson and got him to sign my top for me. I had a chat with him and I was with [boxer] Tommy Fury as well.
"It was good to get me in a quite good seat and I actually wore some decent clothes for once, instead of just trackies!
"Hopefully, I can win the world championship or even a major trophy this year – one of the five or six majors that are on offer – and take it to Old Trafford."
