Luton boss Edwards eager to keep Arsenal midfielder Lokonga

Luton boss Rob Edwards admits he wants to sign permanently Arsenal midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga.

The young Belgian is on-loan at Kenilworth Road this season.

Edwards said: “Yes, I think he's a wonderful player, a brilliant person as well and he's fitted in great.

"I don't think right now is the right thing for him, we just want him to focus on himself and playing and continue to do what he's doing. I had a really good chat with him out there after training, just to say how pleased I am with him, how much we all love him, we enjoy having him around and we're really lucky to have him here.

"I think he's really enjoying it and we're seeing the best of him right now."
