Luton Town’s Alfie Doughty is drawing interest from Brentford, among other Premier League teams, according to Sky Sports. Despite this interest, staying at Luton could still be a beneficial option for Doughty.
Luton Town may face player departures in the summer transfer window following their relegation from the Premier League. Although the Hatters didn’t invest heavily in recent transfer windows despite having the opportunity following their promotion, they relied on budget-friendly and free transfers from the EFL. This left manager Rob Edwards with a challenging task to keep the team in the top tier.
Edwards nearly succeeded in maintaining their Premier League status, and several players stood out during the 2023/24 season, despite the team accumulating only 26 points. Carlton Morris and Elijah Adebayo, who scored a fair number of goals, could attract interest, alongside other standout players.
Alfie Doughty Attracting Interest from Brentford and Others
Doughty, a key attacking asset in the 2023/24 season, adapted well to the Premier League after joining Luton in 2022 and contributing to their promotion. His performances, including two assists against Arsenal in December, have drawn interest from Brentford and other top-tier English clubs. Sky Sports reports that Doughty is open to playing in the Premier League again, indicating a possible departure from Kenilworth Road if a tempting bid comes in, given he is not out of contract this summer.
Luton Town Could Retain Alfie Doughty
Despite the interest, Luton Town might retain Doughty. Their modest spending in the top flight suggests they could offer him a competitive contract to stay. Kenilworth Road offers stability, a talented manager, and a strong chance of competing for promotion back to the Premier League next season. Doughty might prefer to stay with Luton, where he has a better chance of winning more games than at Brentford, who, despite their recent success, might finish in the bottom half of the Premier League again next season.
Staying at Luton remains a viable and potentially rewarding option for Doughty.
