Luton sign Kenyan International

Luton Town have today announced the signing of Kenyan International striker Taiwo Atieno, on a permanent deal until the end of the season. he was a free agent.

The Brixton-born 6'2' 24-year-old has been playing in the American Leagues for three years, after having begun his career at Walsall.

He knows this League well having played with Tamworth in 06/7 season, before moving to the Americas.

Said to be powerful, speedy and strong, he has earned 4 International caps for Kenya.

Luton played a closed doors friendly against MK Dons this afternoon and Taiwo played for the full 90 minutes.

Luton won the encounter 4-0 with Taiwo netting a hat trick, obviously impressing boss Richard Money. Matt Barnes-Homer scored the fourth against a side with Dean Morgan and Sol Davis in it.

Subject to international clearance the striker will be available for Saturday's match with Hayes & Yeading United at Kenilworth Road.

He will wear squad number 11.

Interesting signing just days after the Hatters hit 6! It shows that there is no complacency in the management set-up and this could be a very good signing for them.
