Kevin Foley is a professional footballer currently playing for Luton Town FC.
Foley progressed through the youth ranks at Luton, and made his first team debut in 2002. He has twice been named Luton's Young Player Of The Season, in the 2002-2003 season, and 2003-2004 season.
Under the leadership of Mike Newell, Foley has become one of Luton's most consistent, level-headed performers, and regularly plays every game he is available for. Due to this, he has attracted interest from Premiership clubs such as West Ham United.
Foley made his U21 debut for Ireland in May 2004, and has gone on to play 8 times. In May 2006, Foley was called up to the senior Ireland squad, but did not play.
He wears the number 2 shirt for Luton and can operate as right back or in central midfield.
Foley scored his first goal for Luton in a 4-1 victory over Yeovil Town in the League Cup 1st Round in August 2003.
