_”Kone’s Second Chance: Luton Town Predicted to Revive Interest in Wycombe Goal-Scorer”_
Luton Town is set to revive their interest in Wycombe Wanderers striker Richard Kone, according to sources close to the club. The Hatters were heavily linked with the 25-year-old goal-scorer during the January transfer window, but a deal failed to materialize.
However, with Luton’s attacking options struggling to find consistency, manager Rob Edwards is predicted to make another move for Kone, who has been in impressive form for Wycombe this season.
“Richard Kone is a player we’ve admired for some time, and we’re likely to revisit our interest in him,” a Luton Town insider revealed. “We believe he has the quality to make a real impact in our squad, and we’re willing to meet Wycombe’s valuation to make it happen.”
The one condition that could scupper the deal is Wycombe’s insistence on a significant sell-on clause, which would entitle them to a percentage of any future transfer fee. Luton is hesitant to agree to such terms, but the club’s hierarchy is reportedly willing to negotiate to get the deal over the line.
Kone, who has scored 12 goals in 25 appearances for Wycombe this season, is believed to be open to a move to Luton, and the two clubs are expected to hold talks in the coming weeks.
If Luton can agree on a deal with Wycombe, Kone’s arrival would provide a significant boost to the Hatters’ attacking options, and could potentially propel the club into the Championship playoff mix.
