We can confirm that young midfielder Jake Burger has today joined National League club Rochdale on a permanent transfer.
The 19-year-old joined the Hatters academy at the age of eight and was part of the Under-18 team that won the EFL Youth Alliance South-East Division and Merit League double in 2022/23, as well as reaching the fifth round of the FA Youth Cup.
He also starred in the U21 side that won the Beds Senior Cup that season, scoring in the 6-2 win over Biggleswade at Kenilworth Road, before playing in their debut Premier League Cup campaign having signed his first professional contract last summer.
Jake had his only first team involvement when named on the bench for the Carabao Cup second round tie at Exeter last September, but gained valuable experience in the second half of the season on loan at National League South side St Albans City.
The teenager leaves with the best wishes of everyone at Kenilworth Road and we look forward to watching his senior career progress at Rochdale.
Good luck, Jake!
