Former King's Lynn Town striker Joe Taylor has joined League One Huddersfield Town from Luton on a permanent deal.

The 22-year-old has signed a deal, for an undisclosed fee, which ties him to the Terriers until 2029.

Taylor, a Wales Under-21 international, made just one appearance for the Linnets before joining Peterborough in November 2021. He also played for Swaffham and Wroxham, where he was a prolific marksman. He joined Luton in January 2023 and had successful loan spells at Colchester and Lincoln.

"The ambition of the club was really attractive to me and after speaking to the sporting director (Mark Cartwright) and head coach (Michael Duff), I was left with no doubt in my mind about the decision I wanted to make," said King's Lynn-born Taylor.

"I’ve kept an eye on results since the summer and the form we are in is really impressive.

"Walking around the stadium and training ground there’s no hiding from the size of the club, either. We are in a really promising position in the table with the most important part of the season to come, and that’s something I want to be part of and contribute to."
