Luton are set to win the race to sign Wigan starlet Thelo Aasgaard as new boss Matt Bloomfield is backed with transfer kitty to stave off relegation

Luton are backing new boss Matt Bloomfield by agreeing a fee of £3million for Wigan’s exciting prospect Thelo Aasgaard.

With The Hatters in the Championship relegation zone, they’ve moved quickly to see off interest from Norwich, Blackburn and Stoke in the 22-year-old playmaker who has scored 12 times this season.

Aasgaard has played for Norway under-21s and after making his Wigan debut in 2020 signed a five-year contract with the club in 2023.

Latics manager Shaun Maloney, a member of their 2013 FA Cup-winning team, admitted earlier in the transfer window that Aasgaard may be sold.
