The 18-year-old, who was spotted playing Sunday League football two years ago, was offered professional terms this week having made his first team debut against Yeovil in April 2009.[LNB]Lee's time at Cheltenham has been disrupted by injuries, most notably when he lost more than a stone in weight suffering with a stomach gland problem which required surgery, however he is confident he will be match-fit for next season.[LNB]He told the Gloucester Citizen: "It is a dream for me to progress from Sunday League to professional football and it shows that whatever level you are playing at, you never know who is watching.[LNB]"I can barely comprehend it myself, but I have given it my all and hopefully more of my goals will come along in the future.[LNB]"I lost a stone with my illness, but I have managed to put it back on by eating a lot. I could still do with adding another stone or two ready for next season and I am doing as much as I can to improve."[LNB][LNB]
