Luton Town have signed Tottenham Hotspur forward Jamie Donley on a season-long loan deal.

The 21-year-old Northern Ireland international has previously had loan spells with Leyton Orient, Stoke City and Oxford United.

"Jamie's a quality player and someone who we have kept our eye on since January," boss Jack Wilshere told the club website., external

"He's a player that can make the difference in the final third, and he also gives us something different in the centre of midfield, being left-footed."

Manchester United midfielder Dan Gore is in advanced talks to join League One Luton Town on loan.

Gore spent last term at Rotherham, where he made 34 appearances.

Although he was part of Michael Carrick's squad for the start of pre-season, the plan had always been for Gore to spend the season away from Old Trafford.

The 21-year-old had a number of options, but it is thought working with Jack Wilshere, who played in a similar position, has been a key factor in Gore's choice, although a deal is still to be agreed.

Meanwhile, it is understood no final decision has been made around the short-term future of left-back Harry Amass.

The 19-year-old was around United's squad for all pre-season as back-up to Luke Shaw, but was not included for the opening Premier League game against Hull City and instead was on Premier League 2 duty in the 5-0 win over Ipswich on Monday.

It had been expected Amass would leave United, either on loan or permanently. However, his future is still undecided.

The same is also thought to be true of another left-back, Diego Leon.

Although he earned his first full cap for Paraguay last season, the 19-year-old did not force his way into the first-team picture, and it seemed telling Amass was chosen ahead of him for first-team duties in pre-season.

It is understood Leon would like a loan move, but as yet, nothing has been agreed.

Winger Benny Benagr has signed a new contract committing his future to Luton Town.

The 18-year-old scored his first goal on his senior debut for the Hatters in their 3-0 win at Gillingham in the first round of the EFL Cup on Saturday.

Benagr has been in the youth academy of his hometown club Luton since Under-9s level.

"The last few weeks have been a bit crazy, but I've enjoyed it so much and I'm hungry to keep learning," he told Luton's website., external

"Benny has dealt with everything that's been thrown at him in recent weeks," Luton boss Jack Wilshere added. "He's taken everything in his stride, and scoring the goal on Saturday was reward for his hard work, but this contract isn't a result of that.

"It was already in place because he's shown in a very short space of time exactly why the academy coaches rate him so highly."

The club have not disclosed the length of Benagr's new deal.
