Wycombe Wanderers announced the signing of 18-year-old Joseph McCallum of Coventry City.
The teenage midfielder, however, unlike many signings Wycombe have made to strengthen his new academy, looks to have been thrown straight into the first team squad, with Wycombe proudly confirming "(McCallum) has been integrated into the first-team environment, training with the senior squad at Marlow Road since the New Year".
Combined with the low shirt number of 30 has led many to believe the young man is far closer to first team football than first expected.
The young player had a trial at Chelsea following Kinetic Academy's takeover of Chelsea's academy setup, with former Wycombe staff member Harry Hudson taking up the role of U21s manager.
