Interesting read; very good player in my opinion.

Interesting indeed. Much younger than I thought, seems he’s been around for ages. Good age.

a brilliant signing i would think 👌👌

Linked with West Brom too, I gather. They're certainly in need of a striker, and Valerien Ismael obviously rates him.

That Trophy replay at Welling where he made his 1st team debut aged just 16 is one of my abiding non-league memories. 76 Luton fans, or thereabouts. Mark Tyler had a moment of madness and threw the ball into his own net, we were behind for ages and then Jason Walker equalised quite late on. It was absolutely freezing cold and you could see the frost forming on the pitch, which had been borderline playable to start with. Relief all round when Alex Lawless scored 3 minutes into added time and spared us all another 30 minutes.

Much that I'd like to believe this rumour as I think Woodrwow would be an ideal fit for our team, it's Wiki! West Brom appear to have signed Dike to solve their striker issues but in a straight fight between Blades and Luton for Cauley, I suspect we would lose out on wages alone. Never say never but hard to see this move materialising.

Having watched several Quest highlights packages and read far too much over the Xmas break, it's hard to see if there are currently any Adebayo type players in L1 and L2 who are at clubs who would sell or players who could use Luton as a stepping stone. Your Pompey, Ipswich and Sunderland sized clubs have decent strikers but they are already likely to be on big wages so we wouldn't be a magnet for those types of players. As far as I am concerned, we need an obvious back up for Eli - sadly, Jerome hasn't ticked that box and we are much more impotent without Eli and his physicality, let alone his technical abilities. Pleased that Eli hasn't been selected for the AFCON tournament!

Plus it's January! Yes, we signed Eli in January, ourselves, but most January signings are kneejerk or ill thought out (clubs making signings just for the sake of it).

That Elliott Lee at Charlton could be a good foil for Adebayo he's quite a good finisher
