PAUL Benson has joined Luton Town on a full-time basis following his release from Swindon Town this summer.

After long-protracted talks, the striker was finally unveiled by the League Two club today and could face his former employers in the first round of the Capital One Cup next month.

“It’s good to finally get the contract sorted. I’m looking forward to an exciting season for me and the club,” Benson told lutontown.co.uk.

“I think we have the players here to really push on and challenge at the right end of the table.

“I’ve been lucky enough to have been promoted from League 2 a couple of times so I think I know what players are required to do it – and I think we have the quality here to do that.

“If we take the momentum from last season forward I really do think we have a real chance of going up again.”
