Glen Rea has been released from his Luton Town contract by mutual consent.

The 28 year-old leaves the club after seven years.

Rea told Luton's website: “I'm so proud of what everyone has achieved in my time at the club. It's been a mad journey and we've all experienced some unbelievable highs together, with so many players and staff having been here all the way through. To do what Luton Town Football Club has done with that core will never be repeated, and it's been a privilege to be part of that history.

“I still will be, but from now on as a supporter because I'll never lose that love for the club. I've made so many friends, not just on the football side but also among the staff who work tirelessly behind the scenes to make the club what it is, and the fans as well. As much as I'd love to have been playing all the time, I've had some great nights in the crowd and thank them for their constant support.

“Wherever my next move might take me, you'll still see me at matches. But for now I want to thank everyone that I've worked with – all the players, managers, coaches, the brilliant medical team and sports scientists, all the staff and directors – and wish the club every success as that amazing journey continues."
