Perth Glory is delighted to confirm that English midfielder Luke Amos has joined the club’s Isuzu UTE A-League squad for the remainder of the 2024/25 season.
Now 27, Amos came through the youth ranks at EPL giants Tottenham Hotspur, eventually making his senior debut in a 2016 friendly against Juventus.
During his time with Spurs, he spent spells on loan at Southend United, Stevenage and Queens Park Rangers and eventually joined the latter on a permanent basis in 2020.
The former England Under-18 international went on to take his tally of Championship appearances for the West London club to more than 80 before completing a move to Scottish Premiership side Hibernian in 2024.
He is now excited to open a new chapter in his career with Glory.
“I’m just looking to play football, to get out there and show what I can do,” he said.
“This group of players is growing and coming together and I’m delighted to be a part of that.
“I’m so hungry to do well.
“There were four Aussies at my last club [Hibernian], plus Adam Le Fondre and they all spoke really highly of the A-League.
“I’ve seen what the A-League can do for players’ careers and as soon as the opportunity to come to the A-League came about, it was something that I was very keen to do.
“I cannot wait to get going.”
Glory Football Director Stan Lazaridis believes that Amos’ quality and versatility will enable him to make a major impact in the A-League this season and possibly beyond.
“Luke has a great pedigree having developed through the Academy system at Spurs and then established himself at Queens Park Rangers,” he said.
“He was highly recommended to us by Nick Montgomery [current Assistant Head Coach at Tottenham Hotspur and former Hibernian Head Coach] as a player whose profile really fits [Glory Head Coach] David Zdrilic’s style and we’ve been pursuing him for three months.
“He’s played at a very high level throughout his career to date and we’re very confident that he will be a big asset for us as we look to continue to improve between now and the end of the year.
“Luke can operate as a number six, or a box-to-box number eight, he’s technically very good, retains possession really well, has a great passing range and will provide that forward thrust which we’ve been missing at times this season.
“Should he impress for us, as we expect him to do, the club has an option to extend his contract for another year.”
