Although the Hatters signed Cameron Jerome, on Friday, it would not surprise me if, given the opportunity, Nathan Jones were to sign another striker.
But will that striker be Carlos Mendes Gomes?
The 22-year-old, currently on the books of Morecambe, has been linked with a move to a host of clubs, a list which includes Luton Town, Barnsley, Hull City, Sunderland and the Scottish Premier League Champions Rangers.
But, having previously covered the speculation – luton-linked-with-acquisition-of-league-two-striker – I recall the comments were not that encouraging.
Today, our associates at The 72 have picked up on a snippet of information in a Sunday tabloid which suggests Luton Town have been told that if they wish to acquire the services of Carlos Mendes Gomes, they will need to pay a transfer fee of £500,000.
I believe such a fee will produce more negative comments about purchasing a player who scored 16 goals last season and provided 5 assists.
But let us see how your views reflect in our latest poll:
Carlos Mendes Gomes For £500,000?
Yes Please!
No Thanks!
Also, please feel free to have your say on what I believe is an outrageous fee in the comment facility beneath this article.

Morning mh, if you look back at my post on our midfielders debate. I have put up a theoretical debate with Alan it might be worth an article as I mentioned the gomes fee in it!!!
thanks Chris, I’ll work on an article on taking a financial gamble on Ercan Kara this morning.
Hi mh, I only used kara as an example as there has been rumours but any body. Who could be used.
500K hell of a gamble, wait 12 months and he will be out of contract anyway or wait until Jan, could pick him up for much less than 500K (assuming no one else buys him, a risk I think is worth taking)
