LEIGH RMI manager Steve Waywell has been left with a selection headache ahead of Saturday's Conference curtain-raiser with Hayes as both Dino Maamria and Marcus Hallows scored in the 4-2 defeat of Chorley.
Maamria netted his third goal in RMI colours as Leigh wound up their pre-season campaign.
RMI boss Steve Waywell has seen enough of Maarima to sign the former Tunisian Under 21 international who was released by Conference rivals Southport.
Maamria's opener was cancelled out when former RMI striker Andy Mason levelled following errors from Iain Swan and Monk.
RMI re-established their advantage when Hallows - a second half replacement for young forward Troy Hayder - stabbed home Monk's left wing cross. David Such evened matters again nine minutes from the end, the 18th goal Leigh have conceded in nine pre-season games, a worrying sign ahead of the big kick-off.
Swan popped up to net the third and Tony Black secured the fourth victory of the summer for the Railwaymen.
Ex-Bolton midfielder Steve Thompson was forced to withdraw from the side with a recurrence of his knee injury.
