Luton boss Rob Edwards has explained Ryan Giles leaving for Hull City.

Giles was a record signing by Luton last summer from Wolves.

Edwards said: “We always want things to be perfect. We brought 13 players in in the summer and for all 13 of them to work out amazingly well, perfectly well, we're probably asking too much there.

"Gilo's a brilliant lad, we've got a really good relationship, we've worked together at two different clubs previously, it was important that for him and the club this is the right thing to do. I didn't want to stand in his way for this opportunity that he had and I felt it was the right thing for the football club as well.

"So it made sense, and of course we wish him well as he's played an important part in this first half of the season and I'll keep in touch with him going forward."
