Allan Campbell (born 4 July 1998) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Luton Town. He has also been selected for Scotland at under-21 level.
Club career[]
Campbell, who was born in Glasgow and attended All Saints Roman Catholic Secondary School in the city,[2] is a product of the Motherwell Academy having joined the club at the age of 10.[3]
On 29 October 2016, Campbell made his debut for Motherwell as a substitute in a 4–1 win against Ross County.[4] On 15 April 2017, he scored his first senior goal, the fourth in a 4–2 win over Inverness Caledonian Thistle, picking up the man of the match award at the same time.[5]
On 13 October 2017, Campbell signed a new contract, keeping him at Motherwell until 2021.[6] His contract was later improved, but not extended.[7] During the 2017–18 season he took part in the 2017 Scottish League Cup Final (as a substitute) and the 2018 Scottish Cup Final (as a starter), both occasions ending in 2–0 losses to Celtic.
On 12 September 2020, he scored the only goal of a Scottish Premiership match against St Johnstone.[8] In May 2021 the Motherwell manager Graham Alexander said that Campbell would leave the club at the end of the season, as a final effort to negotiate a new contract had failed.[9][10]
On 15 June 2021, Luton Town announced the signing of Campbell after agreeing an undisclosed fee with Motherwell to secure his signature before his contract expired.[11]
International career[]
In September 2017, Campbell was named in the Scotland under-21 squad for the first time ahead of the European Under-21 Championship qualifying matches against England and Latvia.[12] He made his debut on 6 October 2017, against England.[13] Campbell scored one goal for the Scotland under-21 team, in a 1–0 win against Lithuania in September 2020.[14]
