Luton club achieved a heavy-caliber surprise, and snatched qualification for the English Premier League, by defeating Coventry City in the play-off match, on Saturday, but it faces a “dilemma” that may exclude it from the Premier League.
Luton reached the highest level in English football for the first time in its history, and recorded a beautiful story of struggle, as it disputed the fourth and third degrees, shortly before today.
But now he is facing a dilemma.

Luton excluded
Luton plays its matches at Kenilworth Road, which can accommodate ten thousand spectators, and is the smallest football stadium in the Premier and First Divisions.
The problems of this stadium are many, most notably that it has not been renewed much since its foundation in 1905.

The entrances to the stadium are built among residential houses, while the fans cross through narrow alleys for residents to reach the stadium.
The real problem is that Luton do not have the facilities inside the stadium to keep up with the advanced television requirements of the Premier League.
These facilities and platforms are imposed by the Premier League on all Premier League clubs, and no team is allowed to play in the league without providing them, in order to maintain the quality of television transmission that is broadcast to hundreds of countries around the world.
the solution
Luton Town has already begun a project to build a new stadium, but its completion may take years, which means that next season, the team will not be able to play on the new, more developed stadium.
There are two solutions to Luton’s current problem:
- The first solution is for Luton to play its matches in the Premier League, on the grounds of another club’s stadium, in a nearby city, and to expedite the construction of the new stadium so that it is ready for the 2024-2025 season.
- The second solution is to work on creating the platform required for television broadcasting, in the current stadium, but the work must be done very quickly, as the new season will start following only 3 months.
