1. Bim Pepple

Former MK Dons teenager came from Canadian Premier League club Cavalry in the summer of 2022, replacing previous manager Nathan Jones.

The striker moved on loan to Grimsby Town, Bromley, Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Southern United, and Chesterfield, where he battled for goals until joining the Shrimpers at the start of the previous season.

2. Erik Pieters

Former manager Rob Edwards signed the Dutch international on a short-term contract in December 2024, but he only appeared on the bench three times and left the club after his contract expired in January. He trained with Middlesbrough before joining fellow second-tier side Derby County in March, where he made his solitary debut in the penultimate minute of the season’s final game against Stoke City. The Rams have released him, thus he is now a free agent again.

3. John McAtee

The attacker joined Luton from Grimsby Town in August 2022 for an undisclosed amount. However, he was immediately loaned back to the Mariners, where he scored four goals in 31 games during the 2022–23 season.

Despite playing in pre-season as the Hatters prepared for the Premier League, he went on a season-long loan to League One Barnsley, where he scored 15 goals in 45 appearances. Last August, he signed a permanent contract with Bolton Wanderers, where he scored 12 goals in 55 appearances.

4. Kynan Isaac

Former Reading winger signed a one-year contract with former manager John Still in August 2014, joining from Banbury United, however he never appeared for the Hatters before being dismissed. He was loaned out to Oxford City, Hemel, and Banbury again before moving on to Brackley, Aylesbury United, North Leigh, and Stratford Town, where he was banned for ten years for his involvement in spot-fixing during an FA Cup fixture against Shrewsbury Town in November 2021.
