Charlton Athletic have reportedly agreed to recruit former Barnsley midfielder Luke Berry after he left Luton Town.
The 31-year-old is now a free agent after being released by Luton following their relegation from the Premier League. His departure marked the end of seven years at Kenilworth Road, during which he represented the Hatters in all four divisions of professional football in England.
Berry appears to be poised for a fresh challenge in the city, with the South London Press reporting that Charlton have agreed to sign the midfielder.
According to the source, Berry is only a medical away from joining Charlton, but the transaction has been delayed due to the midfielder’s absence on holiday. Berry, a popular face in South Yorkshire, played the 2014/15 season with Barnsley after moving up from the fifth division. He joined the Reds from Cambridge United, making 37 games before returning to the U’s.
Luton came visiting in 2017, while the Hatters were still in League Two. Berry was featured in three promotion-winning campaigns before joining the club’s top flight squad.
