Born on 2 July 1996, English forward Luke Armstrong graces Motherwell Football Club with his skills primarily as a striker. A formidable presence on the field, Armstrong stands at 6ft 1in (1.86m) and weighs in at 11st (70kg). Number 59 features on his jersey.
His current market value sits at roughly £170k, as reported by Transfermarkt. With his existing contract with Motherwell set to lapse come 31 May 2025, his future remains a topic of discussion.
Armstrong's football career witnessed his transfer from Birmingham City to Cowdenbeath in Scotland in July 2015. During his premier season with Cowdenbeath (2015-2016), Armstrong made six appearances in league matches.
The next chapter saw Armstrong head back to England in July 2016, transferring from Cowdenbeath to Blyth Spartans in the National League North in England.
Come July 2017, Armstrong found himself making a move from Blyth Spartans to Middlesbrough in the Championship in England, for a fee kept under wraps. The following year, in July 2018, he was loaned from Middlesbrough to Gateshead in the National League in England.
Armstrong's journey took a new course in January 2019, when he was loaned from Middlesbrough to Accrington Stanley in the League Two in England.
In July 2019, he transferred from Middlesbrough to Salford City in League Two, the transfer fee protected by a veil of non-disclosure. His stay in Salford was punctuated by a stint at Hartlepool United in the National League in December 2020, facilitated by another loan.
Armstrong's progression in July 2021 saw him transfer from Salford City to Harrogate Town in League Two in England, again for an undisclosed sum. During his time at Harrogate Town (season 2022-2023), Armstrong made a name for himself with 36 first team appearances and 12 successful strikes in league matches.
January 2024 marked Armstrong's transfer from Harrogate Town to Carlisle United, oncemore an undisclosed deal.
Fast forward a year to January 2025, and Armstrong found himself on the move again, this time on loan from Carlisle United to Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership. During his current 2024-2025 season at Motherwell, Armstrong has made 13 first team appearances and netted four goals, further underlining his credentials.
