Luton Town defender Reece Burke is determined to play his part for the newly promoted Premier League club.

The 25-year-old has managed 57 appearances for the Hatters since he arrived on a free transfer from Hull City.

Being at Luton since 2021, Burke has struggled to get a run of more than six straight league starts due to injury issues.

Speaking to the club's official website, former West Ham trainee Burke said after getting a new contract: I'm absolutely delighted.

"I'm grateful to have another opportunity, buzzing to continue my journey here.

"It's been two successful years here, the first season we got in the play-offs and didn't get promoted but in the second season we did go up.

Wembley was the best day of my life in football, so I'm really delighted to stay.

"Personally, last year was difficult for me in terms of injuries, my main focus this time is to stay fit and try to do well.

"When I'm fit, I play well so I know I've got more to give.

I just enjoy coming into training every day, we've got a great team, great staff, great fans, I like everything about this club, so it was a no brainer really."
