About our Luton Town news
Latest news on Luton Town, the Hatters, covering League One football, fixtures, results, transfers, and news from Kenilworth Road.
Luton Town Football Club compete in EFL League One, the third tier of English football. Nicknamed "The Hatters" after the town's historic hat-making industry, the club have called Kenilworth Road home since 1905. Founded on 11 April 1885, Luton have experienced dramatic fluctuations throughout their history, from competing in the top flight to navigating the lower divisions.
The club face a period of rebuilding under manager Jack Wilshere, appointed in October 2025. Luton endured consecutive relegations from the Premier League and Championship, returning to League One after a challenging spell. The focus now centres on stabilising the squad and competing for promotion back to the second tier. Transfer activity and tactical adjustments remain key priorities as the club work to restore their competitive standing.
Beyond the pitch, Luton Town maintain strong community connections in Bedfordshire. The club's passionate fanbase has remained loyal through turbulent times, creating an atmosphere at Kenilworth Road that reflects the town's working-class heritage. Local initiatives and youth development programmes continue to strengthen ties between the club and residents, ensuring Luton Town remains central to the area's sporting identity.
The club's recent history includes a memorable first-ever Premier League campaign in 2023-24, though it was marred by Tom Lockyer's cardiac arrest during a match against Bournemouth in December 2023. Plans for a new 25,000-capacity stadium received approval in early 2025, with construction beginning later that year. The venue is expected to host its first competitive fixture at the start of the 2028-29 season, marking a significant milestone for the club's infrastructure.
