Sonny Cox has previewed Exeter City's tough away trip to Lincoln City, as well as sharing his academy story for EFL Youth Development Week.

City are on a five match unbeaten run in the league that began thanks to Sonny's late equaliser against Northampton earlier this month, which was Cox's seventh strike in red and white since he broke into the first team from the academy.

"It's been a long journey and I have loved every part of it from when I was young, watching in the Big Bank, to finally now actually being out there. It's a dream come true. And it's all down to the coaches with how much work they put into the academy."

"Whenever I play I always think about those times when I was back being a fan and I feel like that helps me do my best.

"To score the goal against Northampton was a great feeling as it came at the end of a tough time for me after injury, so it was great to come back and make an impact.

"And now I am just looking towards the next match and I feel like we'll give Lincoln a good game. We're playing with more freedom which comes with more confidence."
