The 18-year-old didn’t start playing football until the age of 11.

 

Turning out for Rushmere Lions and Ipswich Thistle, he was spotted by Ipswich Town where he joined their youth development programme.

 

He played for Brantham Athletic under-14s whilst at Portman Road and had a spell training at West Ham United. 

 

Following a short spell at AFC Sudbury, Lay was approached by Preston North End, AFC Wimbledon and Mansfield Town, choosing to join Preston ahead of the two other clubs.

 

Despite his young age, Lay brings a bit of experience with him, playing most recently for Vanarama National League South side Braintree Town and Thurlow Nunn League Premier Division outfit Whitton United.
