Luton Town are closing in on a loan deal with Stoke City winger Tom Ince, according to Sky Sports. The Hatters have had a relatively quiet transfer window thus far, and a move for the 29-year-old could materialise into a late deadline day signing.
Ince is no longer a part of Michael O’Neill’s plans at Stoke, with a seemingly lateral move benefitting both clubs.
Luton Town Are Closing in On Tom Ince Loan Deal
Quiet Transfer Window Sparking Into Life for the Hatters
Kal Naismith is the only player to have walked through the doors this January transfer window thus far, with Peter Kioso and Gabriel Osho both being loaned out to League One clubs. Apart from that, it has been a quiet month for The Town, with the majority of rumours fizzling out .
However, the Championship club’s transfer window has sparked into life right at the concluding stages of the transfer window. Luton were first linked with a move for West Bromwich Albion’s Kyle Edwards, just a couple hours before Sky Sports reported the club’s interest in Stoke’s Tom Ince.
Tom Ince Would Add Much-Needed Quality in the Final Third for Luton Town
The Hatters have only managed to score four goals in their last eight games, resulting in a glaring need to create more goal-scoring opportunities.
And, despite not seeing much game-time with The Potters, Ince is a player who possesses the quality to consistently create chances for his side.
Ince is a player Luton boss Nathan Jones knows well from his short tenure with the Staffordshire club, with the 29-year-old starting the majority of matches under the Welshman’s leadership.
The Potters have been keen on shipping the winger out for some time, and it seems a perfect opportunity to do so, with Luton keen on adding some attacking threat before the window shuts.
