Nottingham Forest great Steve Chettle has congratulated former Ilkeston Town forward Che Adams on becoming a Premier League player.
Basford United boss Chettle was Ilkeston's assistant manager during Adams' time at the club, before he moved to Sheffield United in 2014.
Adams today signed for Southampton after completing a move from Birmingham City for an undisclosed fee, which is reported to be £16m.
Forest Reds defender Chettle was swift to tweet his congratulations to Adams.
The 22-year-old scored 22 Championship goals last season and has agreed a five-year contract with the Premier League club.
"I'm delighted. There was interest in January, when it didn't quite happen, but I'm happy now that it's all gone through," said Adams.
"You can see with the track history - the amount of young players they're playing, the gaffer's belief in the young players, the squad in itself - where the club is going to be. I want to be part of that."
