LEWIS ORFORD has had a dream since he was just five years old - and now hopes he can convince a former Real Madrid manager to make it come true.

The 18-year-old was included in West Ham matchday squads 10 times last season, four of them in the Premier League, as David Moyes gradually brought him through from the academy he joined 13 years ago.

He failed to get on in any of those games and had to watch fellow youngsters George Earthy and Kaelan Casey make their senior debuts.
