Luton Town defender Gabriel Osho has joined French club Auxerre following the expiry of his contract at Kenilworth Road.

Osho was part of the Hatters team that won promotion to the English top flight in 2022-23 and made 21 Premier League appearances last season, scoring twice.

The move will see the 25-year-old play in France's top flight after Auxerre were promoted under boss Christophe Pelissier and he has agreed a one-year deal, with an option for a further 12 months.

Luton, meanwhile, have signed defender Reuell Walters after he turned down a new contract at Arsenal.

The England Under-20 international did not play senior game for the Gunners but was on the bench for eight Premier Leagues games last season.

"Pathway is very important to him. That is one of the reasons why he is leaving Arsenal," said Luton manager Rob Edwards.

"He can play in a number of positions – right-back, right centre-back, right wing-back. He’s got lots of strings to his bow."

On Osho's departure, Edwards "I'd like to thank Gabe for what he did for this football club and wish him nothing but success,"

He is the second player to leave Luton this month, following midfielder Ross Barkley's switch to Aston Villa.
