Denbigh Town Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Luke Johnston.

The 19-year-old joins the club following his departure from JD Cymru Premier champions The New Saints and becomes Town’s fourth signing of the summer.

Johnston arrives at the club having come through the ranks at Park Hall and spent the 2024/25 campaign on loan at Flint Mountain in the JD Cymru North.

“I’m really pleased to sign for Denbigh Town” said Johnston.

“When the chance came to link up with the lads here it was an easy decision.

“There’s so much happening on and off the pitch, it’s difficult to find a reason why you wouldn’t want to be a part of that.

“Hopefully next season we can keep progressing and be right up there at the end of the season”.

“It’s a pleasure to welcome Luke to the club, he’s a young versatile player who had a great upbringing in the game during his time at The New Saints” said Dewi Llion.

“He spent last season with Flint Mountain gaining valuable experience in the Cymru North and will be able to slot right in with us for the upcoming season”.

Traditionally a full-back and midfielder, Johnston began his career in the academy with The New Saints, featuring regularly for the Development and Reserves outfit. During his time at TNS Johnston was part of the squad that won the FAW Youth Cup in 2023 and Cymru Premier Development League North in 2024.

In August 2024 he made his first team debut for TNS playing 72 minutes in the Nathaniel MG Cup against Flint Town United, as the Saints won 5-1 on route to winning the competition.

Just weeks after his debut Johnston moved out on loan to Flint Mountain in the Cymru North, where he featured for the first time against Buckley Town and scored his first goal for the club at the end of August in a 2-1 win over Llandudno.

Johnston featured 24 times for Flint Mountain - starting 22 of those games - and scored three goals for the club as they finished 7th in the table.

He now makes the switch to Central Park ahead of the 2025/26 Cymru North campaign.
