Nathan Jones heavily tipped to return as Luton manager
Former Luton Town manager Nathan Jones is reportedly on the brink of returning to Kenilworth Road as manager.
The 46-year-old controversially quit Kenilworth Road in January 2019 with Town locked in a promotion fight to reach the Championship, heading to Stoke City who were in the second tier themselves.

After Luton announced his replacement Graeme Jones had left the club by mutual consent after just 11 months in charge in a bid to reduce the cost base due to the coronavirus outbreak, Jones was quickly top of the list of replacements according to league sponsors SkyBet.
His odds have now shortened dramatically to 1/20 this evening, with a number of news outlets including the Daily Telegraph, reporting that he is in advanced talks to begin a second spell at the club.
Jones' possible return could divide supporters after his departure for the Potters, although a poll run by the Luton News on Twitter asking fans if they were prepared to welcome their former manager back, which received just under 2,000 votes, saw 43.9 per cent admitting they would do so.
