Giles reunites with Edwards after joining Luton from Wolves

Luton Town have signed wing-back Ryan Giles on a permanent deal from Wolverhampton Wanderers as he is reunited with Hatters manager Rob Edwards.

Giles, who ends a 15-year association at Molineux, is Luton's sixth signing of the summer transfer window.

The 23-year-old progressed through the youth ranks at Molineux and was voted Academy Player of the Year in 2018, before he worked at Under-23s level with Edwards and at AFC Telford United.

“I’m grateful to Rob for giving me my first taste of men’s football and now with the chance to work with him again, especially in the Premier League, it is a fantastic opportunity," Giles told Luton's official club website.

“I thrive off creating chances and I can’t wait to get to know my team-mates and get the fans off their seats. I’m really excited and want to hit the ground running."

Edwards is delighted to be reunited with Giles, a player he knows well.

“He’s a really exciting signing for us," said Edwards. "I’ve known Ryan for a long period of time; I gave him his first taste of senior football back at AFC Telford when he was a young kid on loan from Wolves.

“He’s had a few loans and he’s got lots of experience now, cumulating in last season where he was one of the most outstanding wide players in the Championship. 

"He’s shown he’s a very, very good Championship player who is now hungry to show what he can do in the Premier League.”
