Luton offer new update on Lockyer recovery

Luton Town captain Tom Lockyer was still in hospital over the weekend after his on field collapse on Saturday.

Lockyer, who suffered a similar incident late last season in the Championship playoffs, suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch during their Premier League game against Bournemouth on Saturday.

While the club did not want to give too many details about how Lockyer was faring in hospital, the club did update fans to some extent.

The statement on lutontown.co.uk added: “We understand that supporters are concerned for him and that there is widespread media interest in his condition.

“We are unable to provide a running commentary on his situation, and request that all media please wait for any updates to be released via the club's official channels when the time is right.

“We all want the very best for Tom, his partner Taylor and the whole Lockyer family, and politely ask that his and their privacy is respected at this difficult time."
