Stuart Maynard said"When you're the youngest player to make your debut for Notts, there's going to be loads of interest, loads of Premier League interest, but the brilliant thing with Kameron is he's so grounded.

"He just wants to play football and not worry about anything from the outside.

"He's a special talent, he performs way above his age. We didn't tell him to go and dribble to the corner flag late in the game when it was 2-1.

"If you're a young lad, a lot of the time you're looking to shoot, you want the glory, [but] his game understanding at such a young age is incredible. He went to the corner and he helped us see the game out,"

Maynard added "You never know in football what's round the corner, but he's a very level-headed kid. When they're that young, they can get so excited and get ahead of themselves, thinking they've made it as a footballer.

"But when he comes in to training he's so humble. The way he's dealt with making his debut, you can tell he's a great lad and he's on the right path.

"To be the youngest ever player to make his debut for Notts is incredible, but we've got to manage the expectation of everyone around it. We can't hype him too much because he's a very young lad and he's got a lot to learn, but he knows that and he's very mature in the way he plays the game."
