Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira has put Scott Banks on notice after their preseason friendly draw with Chalton.
Banks scored in the 2-2 result.
Vieira later said: "Scott Banks scored – a really good right foot finish.
"His work was really good, but he's somebody who technically can play at that level. He's really smart, always finding the right position to allow himself to go forward. He's a really smart kid and I think he will spend time with the first-team."
Vieira added: "It's always difficult when you manage to have a couple of [first-team] players and a lot of young players from the Academy to find the right balance. But I'm quite satisfied with where we are tactically. There's a really good understanding from the players about what I want and now we have all the players available to perform."
