Andros Townsend has signed a new long-term contract at Luton Town which will keep the winger at Kenilworth Road for the foreseeable future.
The Hatters have not revealed the length of the contract given to the 32-year-old, who originally joined on a short-term deal in October after being released by Everton.
Townsend told the club's official website: “Obviously I’m delighted; three months ago I thought my career was over.
So from going to 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 half-way done, we’ve got six months – 19 games – to pull off the unthinkable.”
Luton boss Rob Edwards added: “It’s an amazing signing for us. Andros has come into the group with real humility and professionalism. He’s shown the whole group what it means to be elite and a top-end pro.
“His fitness levels have been insane, and he’s shown more and more his qualities with every game.
“For us to be able to tie him down to a longer-term contract is a credit to him – he’s been through a tough time, and it says a lot about him as a person.
“I also think it says a lot about the ambitions of this football club that we’re signing people like Andros, with his level and quality, so it’s a big, big signing for us.”
