Luton Town have swooped to sign veteran goalkeeper Dean Kiely on a month's loan from Portsmouth.

The 36-year-old played a major part in Pompey's escape from relegation last term following his arrival from Charlton Athletic, but has had to play second fiddle to David James this season.

That left the former Republic of Ireland international frustrated and seeking a move away from Fratton Park.

Kiely started his career as a trainee with Coventry City, before making his name at York City and Bury and earning a move to Charlton in the summer of 1999.

He will challenge Marlon Beresford for a starting spot with the Hatters.
