Eunan O'Kane heads back to Luton on loan

Republic of Ireland midfielder Eunan O'Kane has joined Luton on an 18-month loan from Leeds.

The 29-year-old suffered a double leg break during a spell with the Hatters last season.

O'Kane says he's nearing a return from that injury and he hopes to play some part before the end of the current campaign:

“The answer is, I don’t know exactly," O'Kane told Luton's official website.

"I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to contribute between now and the end of the season but at the minute we are still finding that out. We haven’t put a time frame on it, but ideally I’ll be contributing sooner rather than later.

“When I arrived here I immediately fell in love with the place. I did feel a part of the group last year.

“I have been around and I’ve seen a few games so I do have a soft spot for here already and I’m really excited to be back. There’s been a lot of changes since I was last here, but I’m excited to get going again.

“The club have always been in contact with me, checking how I am. There have been multiple conversations about coming back in different windows, so it’s good to finally be in a position where I’m close to playing, hopefully, and be able to make it happen.”
