Huddersfield agree deal to sign Luton Town star Joe Taylor

According to sources who spoke to Football Insider, Huddersfield Town has reached an agreement to permanently sign Luton Town striker Joe Taylor.

Taylor has long been admired by Huddersfield, who attempted to buy him during the summer transfer window but were unsuccessful.Taylor was brought in to support Michael Duff’s team because the Terriers are eager to strengthen their push for promotion from League One.

After spending the previous season on loan at Lincoln and Colchester United, the 22-year-old is eager to play frequently at Kenilworth Road, where he has had few first-team opportunities.

The center-forward scored 22 goals in 46 games throughout his two successful loan stints, with 10 of those goals occurring in 19 League One matches.

Huddersfield supporters are thrilled by Taylor’s goal-scoring prowess in the third division and now think he might be the catalyst for their promotion campaign.

Taylor has played just 145 minutes of football in the first half of the season at Luton, with each of his 13 appearances coming from the bench.

League One promotion contenders Huddersfield are certain he can motivate their forward line despite his difficulties in the Championship.

In an attempt to compete with high-flying Wycombe and Wrexham as well as free-spending Birmingham, the Terriers are willing to make significant purchases during the January transfer window.

It’s thought that adding Taylor’s goal-scoring ability to their front line could propel them into the automatic promotion spots, even though they are now fourth in the table.

Watford was so interested in signing him that, according to Football Insider, they attempted to bring the striker to Vicarage Road in the summer but were unable to come to an agreement.

An agreement with the player and ensuing medical examinations could shortly seal his move to Huddersfield, which is regarded as an impressive coup.
