The Premier League Board has decided that last Saturday’s fixture with AFC Bournemouth will be replayed in full.

The game will be rescheduled for later in the season, with a date to be confirmed following consultation with relevant parties.

Their clash in the last game-week was abandoned in the 65th minute after Luton midfielder Tom Lockyer collapsed on the pitch. The Hatters’ captain, 29, suffered a cardiac arrest in the second half, less than one year after he suffered a similar health scare in the Play-Off final and had to be stretchered off at Wembley.

A statement from Luton Town said: “The Premier League Board has decided that last Saturday’s fixture with AFC Bournemouth will be replayed in full.

“The game will be rescheduled for later in the season, with a date to be confirmed following consultation with relevant parties. The Luton Town ticket office would like to add that ticketing information regarding the rearranged game will be announced in due course.”
