Goalkeeper Ben Hinchliffe has hit a targeted number of games that has triggered an automatic one-year extension to his contract, taking him into his eighth season at Edgeley Park. The 35-year-old surpassed the 300-game mark for the club earlier in the season, and has now made more appearances for the club than any other goalkeeper in our history.

The following players have been offered a new deal ahead of the 2023/24 campaign:

The following loan players have now returned to their parent club:

Vitezslav Jaros

We would like to thank each departing player for all of their efforts during their time at Edgeley Park, contributing to a memorable first season back in the Football League.

We would particularly like to thank defender Ryan Johnson, who made 55 appearances for the club since joining from Port Vale last year and will always be remembered as an important part of the club’s 2021/22 National League title-winning team.

Luton

Following the expiration of their contracts, we have exercised the option for a further year for Gabe Osho, Dan Potts and Elliot Thorpe.

Negotiations are ongoing with Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu, Tom Lockyer, Amari’i Bell and Luke Berry with a view to extending their time at Kenilworth Road.

Ethan Horvath, Cody Drameh and Marvelous Nakamba will return to their parent clubs following the end of their loan spells, we would like to thank them for their fantastic contributions to this historic season.

Matt Macey, Glen Rea, Dion Pereira, Carlos Mendes Gomes and John McAtee will return to the club following the expiration of their loan spells away from Kenilworth Road.

Captain Sonny Bradley, Henri Lansbury and Harry Isted will all leave the Hatters following the expiration of their contracts.

Defender Bradley made 175 appearances for Luton Town and has worn the captain’s armband since the League One promotion season in 2018.

We had already confirmed the centre-half’s departure at the end of his contract before the start of our play-off campaign last month.

Midfielder Lansbury, 32, will also leave Kenilworth Road after joining the club at the start of the 2021-22 season. The Arsenal academy graduate made 48 appearances for the Hatters, scored a memorable screamer at Hull City back in September and contributed to two play-off campaigns.

Isted will also depart after six years, with the goalkeeper having joined the Hatters from Stoke before the start of the 2017-18 League Two promotion-winning campaign. The 26-year-old made six appearances for the Town, including against Chelsea in last season's Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round.

Would love to have Sonny Bradley at ours next season, he was commanding at the back for Luton when at our place late on in the season, and at 6ft 5in looked the part. UTM
