Having already waved goodbye to Kal Naismith, are Luton Town FC in danger of seeing another key component of their defence leaving?
The reason I ask is that this morning, transfer speculation has emerged, courtesy of the local media source – Express and Star – that our Championship rivals, West Bromwich Albion, are said to be interested in taking James Bree to the Hawthorns.
Bree, still just 24-years-of-age, has been with the Hatters since he signed from Aston Villa, in 2020, after a season on loan.
Since arriving from Aston Villa, Bree has developed into a key member of Nathan Jones starting XI and made 42 Championship starts for Luton last season, with the Hatters using his defence skills and attacking instincts to boost Luton’s season.
Hopefully this rumour is just speculative transfer tittle tattle as coping with the loss of Naismith will be a challenge but to lose Bree, as well, would be a disaster.
