Exciting Arsenal Forward Linked With Luton Town Move

Transfer speculation, as far as the Hatters goes, continues to keep me occupied as the season draws nearer by the day.

Yesterday afternoon, as I was enjoying the first spell of sunshine for a couple of days, news broke via several media sources, including – Football League World – that Luton Town were among the front runners to sign the promising young Arsenal striker, Charlie Patino.

Patino, currently on the books of Arsenal, is set to leave the North London club in the hopes of securing regular first-team football.

Last season, Arsenal sent the youngster on a season-long loan spell with Blackpool, whilst at Bloomfield Road, he made 37 league appearances and scored 3 times, as Blackpool were relegated.

As far as playing for his parent club, Arsenal, Patino has yet to make his league debut.

If Patino were to sign for Luton Town, it would be a remarkable return with the youngster having been on our books during the period 2011 to 2015, joining us when he was 8 and leaving when he was 12.

However, Luton Town have rivals for his signature with Cardiff City also reported, by our source, to be interested.

Can I see Patino coming to Kenilworth Road, on a permanent basis, probably not.

His scoring record, last season, was far from impressive and if the Hatters are in the market for a striker, I’d hope that it would be somebody who knows where the back of the net is.

People may say Patino has youth on his side, but our recent record in bringing those with youth on their side on, doesn’t bode well!

Luton Town register interest in Aston Villa forward

Luton Town have confirmed five new additions as they prepare for the Premier League, with Issa Kabore arriving as the newest squad member for the 2023/24 season.

The Hatters have made a positive start to the summer transfer window but there is certainly more business to be conducted, with the goalkeeping position standing as a priority.

However, the latest transfer rumour concerning the Hatters is on the opposite end of the pitch, and within an area where the Bedfordshire club are stacked with options, the frontline.

According to a report from The Athletic (transfer blog – 4:41pm), Luton are considering Aston Villa striker Keinan Davis, with the 25-year-old entering the final year of his current deal at the Midlands outfit.

Luton Town consider a move for Aston Villa striker

As detailed in the report from The Athletic, the Villa striker has not travelled with the rest of the squad to a pre-season trip to the U.S.

Davis is also being tracked by a host of Championship clubs who could look to strengthen their initial level of interest over the next few weeks.

Davis spent the 2022/23 season on loan at M1 rivals Watford, netting seven goals and providing two assists for the Hornets.

The report claims that Villa will likely demand a fee around the £4-7 million mark as they seemingly stand in a position where they are willing to part company this summer.

Of course, Davis worked under the stewardship of Town boss Rob Edwards during the early stages of the last campaign, with the powerful forward enjoying a more productive first half of the season than the second half.
