Luton Town have announced the signing of Isaiah Jones from Middlesbrough.

The 25-year-old is the Hatters’ second signing of the January transfer window after the previously announced arrival of defender Christ Makosso.

Jones, who had also reportedly been of interest to West Brom, has signed for an undisclosed fee and signed a deal of undisclosed length to join the Hatters.

The Guyana international was signed in time to be featured in Luton’s matchday squad for their FA Cup tie at Nottingham Forest, with Luton later confirming he was in the starting line-up for the game at the City Ground later today (11/01).

The right-sided attacker, who can play as a winger or wing-back, had joined Middlesbrough in 2019 and made 148 appearances in all competitions for the club, scoring 13 times.

Jones had regularly featured for the North Eastern side this season, making 23 appearances in all competitions.

The deal was confirmed despite a week of change at Kenilworth Road, with Luton boss Rob Edwards leaving the club earlier this week after a slump in form.

Jones told the official Luton Town website of his delight to make the move to Bedfordshire.

He said, “I think it’s the perfect move for both parties. The project here, the success the club’s had over the past couple of years and moving back down south is an attractive proposition for me.

“This season’s been tough for Luton so far but there’s a really strong squad here and hopefully I can put a smile onto the fans’ faces.

“I’m direct, skilful and I like to give the crowd something to cheer. I can’t wait to get started.”
