Luton Town transfer rumour tracker: Part 3
The summer transfer window is officially open, and as expected, plenty of transfer rumours concerning Luton Town have surfaced over the last few days.
Hatters CEO Gary Sweet revealed whilst in conversation with Luton Today that there could be up to 10 new arrivals during this exciting summer window at Kenilworth Road.
Here, is the latest round-up of Luton Town-related transfer rumours…
Amari’i Bell
A report from TEAMtalk has suggested that Town defender Amari’i Bell has penned down a fresh deal at Kenilworth Road.
The former Blackburn Rovers man, who arrived as a left-wing-back, has made the left-sided centre-back position his own and proved to be one of the club’s top performers during the second half of the 2022/23 promotion-winning campaign.
According to the report, the Hatters are keen to agree long-term contracts for several members of the squad.
Chiedozie Ogbene
Electric Rotherham United striker Chiedozie Ogbene is being considered by the Hatters, as detailed in a report from the Sheffield Star.
Sheffield Wednesday, Ipswich Town, Norwich City and Plymouth Argyle, are also keeping tabs on the 26-year-old who is now a free agent, whilst the Millers remain in contract talks with the Republic of Ireland international.
Ogbene managed eight goals and four assists in 39 Championship appearances last time out as the Millers steered clear of relegation.
Alex Scott
Bristol City sensation Alex Scott has been attracting widespread Premier League interest, and Luton Town are the latest team who have been mentioned in association with the 19-year-old.
As detailed in a report from Football League World, interested parties are not going near the Championship club’s £25 million valuation, and subsequently, that is providing encouragement for the three promoted sides, who all now hold an interest.
A lot of things would have to fall into Luton’s favour for this one to happen but it is no surprise at all that the Hatters have reportedly been keeping tabs on Scott.
Tahith Chong
A player that Luton fans may still have nightmares about, Tahith Chong is being considered by the club’s hierarchy, according to Football Insider.
Chong put in a sensational performance against the Hatters during a 5-0 defeat at Kenilworth Road near the start of the 2021/22 campaign and the Premier League club have contacted the Blues regarding the 23-year-old.
A winger by trade, he can also deliver a good level of performance when deployed centrally as an advanced midfielder.
