Townsend 'delighted' signing new Luton deal

Luton Town winger Andros Townsend has signed a new contract.

Townsend had originally penned a deal to January after arriving at Kenilworth Road in August as a free agent.

"Obviously I'm delighted - three months ago I thought my career was over," said Townsend.

"From going begging around the world just for a trial to being offered a longer contract is a dream come true.

"It's a special, special football club. I think we can really achieve something special this season. It's only halfway done. We've got six months - 19 games - to pull off the unthinkable."

Luton say the former Everton winger's deal keeps him at the club for the "forseeable future".
