Standard Liege defender Nathan Ngoy is in Luton today for a medical ahead of a move to the Championship club.

That’s according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, who reports that the player’s move to Luton is now in the final stages.

We covered reports earlier this week stating that Ngoy could practically consider himself a Luton player after a deal was agreed between the two clubs.

He states that if all goes to plan, Ngoy will sign a long-term contract with the Hatters on Tuesday. His move to Luton will be made official after that has happened.

The deal for him with Standard Liege is completely done, with Luton set to pay €5m to secure the centre-back’s services.

He’ll become their sixth signing of the summer, but only the second player they’ve paid to sign after ’ €11.7m move from Cardiff earlier in the window.

That’s dependent on him passing his medical, of course, but it seems there’s confidence that will happen and he’ll be a Luton player officially by Tuesday at the latest.

This time next week all the drama associated with the summer transfer window will be over.

Some deals will have been done, some deals will have fallen through and clubs will be left to lick their wounds as they search around for those few players who are without a contract or wait until the opening of the January transfer window.

For me it is always a nervy period, anxiously scouting around looking for snippets of information but hoping I don’t find anything relating to those players I’d hate to see Luton Town lose.

Although the gaffer has remarked that the club are in a position whereby they do not have to sell any players, there is always that fear an offer will come along that give them no choice but to sell.
