Former Bohs striker Ali Reghba notched two goals in Leicester's 3-0 win over Swansea this evening, as the 19-year-old looks to secure a contract at the Premier League club.
The first of Reghba's goals was a great demonstration of his opportunism, with the forward stealing the ball from Swansea's kick-off after Leicester scored a penalty, and finishing expertly into the bottom left corner to double his side's advantage.
You wait for one – and then two come along at once! ??

Reghba grabbed his second of the night to make it 3-0 in the 65th minute, with another neat finish this time into the bottom right corner:

Should Reghba seal a move to another club, former clubs Bohemians and Shelbourne will be entitled to compensation, and if he continues to perform like this, it won't be long before someone snaps him up.
Reghba has also featured for Ireland at U19 level, and has been namechecked by U21 coach Stephen Kenny as a promising player:
There are even players in the League of Ireland available for the U21 team right throughout the country. At UCD, players like Neil Farrugia and Liam Scales, Will Fitzerald down in Limerick, Trevor Clarke at Shamrock Rovers, Darragh Leahy at Bohemians, two really good left backs, Ali Reghba at Bohemians, players like that.
