"It's a deal we nearly managed to get over the line earlier in the season, but then Luton decided that they needed to keep hold of Jack for the time being.
"He was at Huddersfield Town when he was younger so has good pedigree. He's a highly-rated player and there was interest from other clubs, so it's great for us that he's opted to come here.
"This is a lad who needs to get more games under his belt so he can show what he's got and prove himself and I'm sure he'll fit in very well here."

"Jack is a very similar type of player to Ryan. He has the same qualities, but obviously operates down the opposite side of the pitch," Weaver added.
"He's got a great engine and likes to bomb on. He'll provide us with width and good deliveries into the box.
"He's got that competitive edge about him as well and a fiery side.
"It'll be nice to have the option of a natural left-footed full-back in the squad."
