manager Paul Michael told his club`s website: "We’re delighted to be able
to bring Luke in. He’s scored goals all his career and he really complements
the other attackers we have at the club.
“Straight
away in training you can see the quality he has, the intensity to his movement
and we know we’ve signed a quality player here, more than that all my initial
talks and interactions with him have shown me that he’s going to be a really
good addition off the pitch too and fit straight in with the boys.
“Excitement
is building, I can’t wait to get our first look at Hopps and the rest of the
boys in a huge challenge tomorrow and I’m looking forward to seeing what he can
help us achieve this season". |
