The news comes weeks after a new contract could not be agreed and he parted ways with the club. 

But the attacker has become manager Graeme Jones’ sixth new signing and will now rejoin the team in Portugal this week for their second pre-season training camp. 

LuaLua told the club’s official website: “Obviously it’s great to be back. I really enjoyed my time here last season, so I think it was the right decision for me to carry on with Luton.

“I have got a good thing going at the club, when I broke into the team properly in January I really started to enjoy myself here. It was unbelievable the way we finished the season. The supporters have made me feel welcome since the moment I arrived here. When they get behind you, like they did since I have arrived, it gives you a massive buzz. It’s a really nice feeling. It was a really special season. I think they liked the way I play, they got behind me and I really appreciated it. I hope it continues this season.

“I have played in the Championship for the last six, seven years, it’s a very tough league. To be back in the Championship is excellent for the club, but it’s a real challenge for everyone. It’s a very, very hard league, it’s aggressive, you don’t get time in the box, but it’s just as hard for the team you are playing against, so it’s a challenge we are looking forward to.

“The aim this season is for everyone to enjoy it. For a lot of the boys it’s the first season in the Championship. So we need to enjoy it, it’s not an easy league, but it’s not easy for any team.”
