It’s wonderful to sign any contract but especially here because since I’ve come in I’ve enjoyed my time here,” Adebayo told the club’s official website.
“There’s a unique set of lads in the changing room that – along with the people around the club and the fans – makes it a no-brainer.”Since I joined it’s been a whirlwind. When I first signed I remember saying I was here for the ride, the rollercoaster, and to just enjoy it – it’s been that and then some.
“The last couple of months have been fantastic and those are the moments why we want to be in the job.”
Adebayo is the eighth player to sign fresh terms at Luton Town following their promotion to the Premier League, after Luke Berry, Amari’i Bell, Carlton Morris, Cauley Woodrow, Reece Burke, Tom Lockyer and Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu.
The London native joined the Championship playoffs winners in January 2021 after stints at Fulham, Slough Town, Bognor Regis Town, Cheltenham Town, Swindon Town, Stevenage and Walsall.
