Background and pre-season
The 2019–20 season was Luton Town's first season back in the Championship after a 12-year absence, having won the League One title in 2018–19.[1][2] Manager Graeme Jones had his contract terminated by mutual consent in April 2020 with Luton in 23rd place, as part of a restructure of the club's football department to reduce its cost base,[3] after professional football in England was suspended in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] With nine matches remaining in the 2019–20 Championship season and the club six points from safety, Nathan Jones was reappointed manager in May, after leaving Stoke City in November 2019.[5] The season resumed in June,[6] and despite being in the relegation zone with one match remaining, Jones led Luton to safety from relegation with a 19th-place finish, after a 3–2 home win over Blackburn Rovers on the final day of the season.[7]
At the end of the 2019–20 season, Luton released Jacob Butterfield and Callum McManaman,[8] while Luke Berry, Danny Hylton, Elliot Lee, Kazenga LuaLua and Glen Rea were retained with new contracts.[9][10][11][12] Luton made four pre-season signings, including defenders James Bree from Aston Villa, Tom Lockyer from Charlton Athletic,[13] Rhys Norrington-Davies on loan from Sheffield United,[14] and midfielder Jordan Clark from Accrington Stanley.[15]
