Harrogate Town's Luke Armstrong will stay with the club after Wrexham's transfer deal fell through.

What happened?

Wrexham had agreed to sign Armstrong from Harrogate Town for a 'really good fee', according to Harrogate manager Simon Weaver. However, the Welsh club failed to complete the required documentation in time.

Why it matters for Harrogate Town

Armstrong's retention is significant for Harrogate Town, given his impressive scoring record last season, with 16 League Two goals in 46 games.

As of 26 Jun 2026, Harrogate Town stands 23rd in League Two, with 39 points from 46 games, and a recent form of LWWLL. | Category | Stat | | --- | --- | | League standing | 23rd | | Points | 39 | | Recent form | LWWLL | | Goals scored | 39 | | Goals conceded | 68 |

What comes next?
