Nice interview with him after that match:
Goal and highlights here. Just got to keep putting those away and hopefully he’ll get a chance at Celtic.  


Scottish football has some of the best crests I think. Dunfermline’s is a beauty. Others like Aberdeen and Falkirk also great.

Thinking long term if Scotland leaves the UK and rejoins Europe I would imagine a large number of our English based players will head up to Scotland. I’d personally prefer Holland, Belgium, France & Germany but like you said the language barrier might be an issue.

Couldn't see many going to Scotland at 16, Scottish clubs havnt the same academy structures or resources. I think players would prefer stay at home until they are 18 and go to England than go to St Mirren or Ross Co. The CTA area between UK and Ireland has been garunteed so Brexit wont be an issue with our players over age of 18. Players will go where they get the most money. Probably see more and more go to play MLS, USL or A-League.

PSV interested in Kevin Zefi.
Ive been involved in his age group since u8s. Has a great chance of making a career for himself. He’s an absolute handful for defenders

He is with a European club, unless it has moved recently! Well, franchise to be more exact and I suppose they are American. Point taken.

And Regina Doherty would say that her most important task was to tell Irish people about it ( before aforementioned pesky overseas lot ).

Has he ever played for any official Ireland underage team?
Don't think he was involved in the U17's last year, or was he?


Update - researched and answered me own question...I rock!
https://www.fai.ie/ireland/news/u17-euro-ireland-squad-announced-for-tournament

So no, no sign of him there.
