Speaking to the Nottingham Evening Post, the young striker said "The gaffer has had me in his office and told me he is offering me a two-year deal."
"It is not the best money to be honest but I'm not too bothered about that because I just want to get into the team and prove myself.
"The manager told me he had already seen me play against Doncaster and Darlington before he came to the club and that he was aware of my abilities.
"Jake and Bap are good examples to follow and the manager showed last time when he was here that he is prepared to give youth a chance."
