The Maidenhead United defender is fast building a reputation as one of the National League's top young prospects, regularly drawing in the talent scouts to York Road while on loan from Oxford United.
Golding has already played a pivotal role in Maidenhead's recent upturn in form this season, now he is looking to establish himself as a regular in a senior set-up and take his promising career to the next level.
"I'm really enjoying my football at the moment," the 20-yearold told The NLP. "My main aim at this stage of my career is to get games under my belt and show people what I can do.
"Growing up, I had aspirations of playing in the Premier League and nothing has changed.
"Playing Non-League football has been really important to me. It has helped me mature as a player and has really opened my eyes because it is totally different to academy football.
Confidence
"I've played Southern League, Conference North, Conference South and now the National League, and playing through the divisions like that, at such a young age, shows you what football is about.
"It has given me a good platform to get games under my belt and help me kick on in the future."
