“It’s always nice to score a goal. I don’t get too many so when I do, they feel good,” he told the club’s official website.

“I don’t think they like the knee slide celebration so they’ve had a word with me about that.

Albrighton’s winner did ensure that the Foxes made it two wins from as many games to start pre-season.
