Hatters seal permanent deal for Pelly

Luton Town have completed the stellar signing of Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu on a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee from Premier League West Ham United.

The 20-year-old has penned a two-and-a-half year deal at Kenilworth Road and returns to the club following a hugely successful loan spell with the Hatters this season.

He made his Town debut in central defence in a 0-0 FA Trophy draw at Staines but was quickly moved into central midfield by boss John Still, with some inspirational displays during his next six outings.

An injury suffered in the 6-0 win over Kidderminster saw him return to Upton Park, but Still has now got his man, concluding a fine day in the transfer market, with Swansea City youngster Jernade Meade also joining.
