He said: “It’s difficult moving from place to place, but when you have the right people around you, like I do with mates like Tobi Oluwayemi and Ben Wylie, they make it really easy.

“The boys come round to my flat at times and we just chill out or go for some food.

'We were speaking about this the other day that later on in our careers, when we look back at this time, we really want to have enjoyed the changing room.'

“Everyone gets on so well with lots of jokes but when we take it seriously, we take it seriously.”

Lawal is currently out injured but it’s not halted his ambitions of making the move to first-team football.

“Things have gone really well, it’s actually gone better than I thought it would when I first came,” he said. “I just hit the ground running and things have been going well for me personally.

“The hope is to make my debut with the first team, get my chance and really grab the moment and show people I’m capable of playing at a high level.

“I’ve trained with the first team a couple of times and it’s a really good level. The main point is the intensity, everyone is always at it, there’s no slacking.

“Ideally, I would like to achieve my goals this season. I just have to be ready and wait for the call.”
