The centre forward began his career with Shrewsbury, before joining Hinckley United and headed to Kenilworth Road in March 2012, going on to score 57 goals in 111 games, firing Luton back into the Football League.

He left in a £600,000 move for Brentford in June 2014, before a £9m move to Burnley in August 2015.

Earlier today, Luton chief executive Gary Sweet confirmed that the club wouldn’t receive a boost to their coffers from add-ons surrounding the fee.
