Caleb Ansen has a taste for more after being exposed to the first-team experience at Norwich City this season.
The youngster has been named on the Canaries' bench on two occasions at Sunderland and against Middlesborough at Carrow Road and is regularly training with City's first-team shot-stoppers under keeper coach Paul Clements' guidance.
Ansen, who has been with the Canaries since he signed as an under-13 in 2018, has worked with Angus Gunn and George Long at Colney regularly whilst transitioning from under-18s football to under-21.
The aim for Ansen is for those experiences to become more regular - and he is grateful to City's senior keepers for their support.
"It's been very good for me. It's going to help me develop and push me on. It's good from the goalkeeping staff that help me out daily to get better and get everything possible out of myself. It's been a good learning experience.
"I am still young. (Angus Gunn and George Long) were very helpful and taught me a lot. I see some of the things that they do and I'm flabbergasted," Ansen told the Pink Un after featuring in City's Youth Cup defeat to Leeds on Friday.
"Some of the things they do are unbelievable. I will keep learning from them, and it goes on from there."
Ansen faces plenty of competition to work his way up the goalkeeping ranks at Carrow Road and is currently making the transition to under-21s football, having outgrown Greg Crane's under-18s. A loan away may prove to be the next step in his development.
He has a familiar face helping guide him through a valuable part of his education with ex-City keeper Declan Rudd, who has taken up the role of lead academy goalkeeping coach after being forced to end his career prematurely through injury.
Ansen is grateful for Rudd's support and wants to lean on all of his experience as he continues his development at Carrow Road.
"He is demanding but very good for me," the youngster said. "He's been with me since I started my scholarship, and I've learned so much from him because he used to play at a high level.
"I cannot thank him enough. We still have a lot of learning to do but it's taken a lot for me to get here. I want to keep learning more and more."
