He later made his first start on 18 October 2014 in a 1–0 loss against AFC Bournemouth. He scored his first competitive goal for the Addicks first team in a 4–1 Football League Cup win over Dagenham & Redbridge. On 26 September, he scored his first league goal for Charlton in a 2-1 loss to Cardiff City.
In February 2014 Grant represented England U17 in the Algarve tournament. On 6 November 2014 Grant was called up to the England U18 squad for a double header against Poland.
