Chelsea caretaker Frank Lampard called up Chelsea's Under-14 captain to join in with first team training.

Lampard made the move on Thursday, with media seeing the youngster being put through his paces alongside established first team players.

Teenager Charlie Holland was training with the likes of Thiago Silva, Conor Gallagher and Raheem Sterling.

There is even a small chance he may be involved in the club's matchday squad for the Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Lampard has always been an advocate of bringing through youth, giving debuts to the likes of Mason Mount, Reece James, Tammy Abraham and Fikayo Tomori.

Chelsea are set to end this season in the bottom half of the Premier League at present.
