Hatters will continue to scour the Scottish leagues for talent
The Hatters chief has already acquired Andrew Shinnie from Birminghan City, after the midfielder enjoyed an impressive season-long loan deal with Hibernian last term, helping them to the Scottish Championship title.
Meanwhile, midfielder Crig Sibbald, who plies his trade at the same level as Shinnie did, with Falkirk, flew out to Slovenia with the Hatters for their week-long training camp recently.

“We’ve got an eye on a lot of people. Without naming names, we’ve spoken about players in the Scottish Premier League that we feel we can realistically get.
“We haven’t gone for any of those because we managed to get certain people.
“We signed Andrew Shinnie, I knew Andre Shinnie before he went on loan to Hibs last year, so it’s a market that we know.”
