Luton boss Nathan Jones has confirmed that he knew about Kal Naismith’s departure to Bristol City, but that Town couldn’t compete with the contact offered to last term’s player of the season. 

However, it was the Scottish star’s exit left the Hatters fuming after the Robins announced his signing before Luton had a chance to say anything.

The club have revealed that’s because there was no communication with Bristol ‘at any other level’, as is the usual process for a player under contract. 

But Jones was keen to clear up any confusion that there was any wrongdoing on Naismith’s part, telling the club’s website: “I have a fantastic relationship with Kal, and myself and him were communicating right throughout the process.

“As a club we did all we could. It’s just at Kal’s age, with the contract that Bristol City offer, a lot of Championship clubs are in a position to offer that and we just couldn’t compete, which we realised.

“We thank Kal for his services. He has done brilliantly for us, and we’ve done brilliantly for Kal. We signed him as Wigan’s right winger, having played just a handful of games at centre-half. Look at him now in that position.

“Kal and I will maintain a great relationship. I realise his reasons for moving on and he kept me privately abreast of every move he was making.”
