Gary Brabin expects more Luton deals

Brabin worked as a scout for Luton last season

Luton Town fans can expect more pre-season arrivals at the club according to assistant boss Gary Brabin.

The Hatters have already signed four new players since missing out on promotion to League Two last season.

Brabin told BBC Three Counties Radio: "We're certainly a little bit light in certain areas.

"There's one player, or one position, we'd like to fill but the squad of players we have we're excited about and we're looking forwards."

Brabin also hinted that striker Taiwo Atieno will not be kept on at Kenilworth Road.

We already have the likes of Gallen, Craddock, Crow & BH. Mr Money has already hinted at adding a big target man to the squad also.

The 24-year-old joined Luton in March after a spell in the USA but failed to make a single first-team appearance.

"I think he only played one-and-a-half reserve games and didn't train that much and I don't think it was fair for us to have a good look at him," said Brabin.

"I think he probably wanted a bit more commitment and we would have liked to have seen a bit more from him.

"At the moment we've got four quality strikers and we're looking forward to working with them.

Town have strengthened their options with the signings of striker Danny Crow, full-back Dan Gleeson, winger Andy Drury and goalkeeper Kevin Pilkington, but Brabin expects tough competition in the Blue Square Bet Premier.

"I don't want to start naming names but when you're involved with football you know what's going on and I think there'll be a few surprises this year," he said.

"There's a couple of clubs that are going to be very ambitious this year and they'll be tempting players with financial backing.

"I think it's going to be an even tougher league than last season."
