I am very happy that Luke has become an investor and owner of the club. There is no better example to follow our players, starting with the first team Academy. His endorsement of our ambitions and willingness to support us on our journey will play an important role as we strive to continue improving our results on and off the pitch. During our conversations he demonstrated his passion for the club, knowledge of our performance and a sincere desire to help us become better. I can’t wait to start working more closely with him again to move us forward.
