Gregory Roland "Greg" Luer (born 6 December 1994) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for League One club Scunthorpe United, on loan from Championship club Hull City.
Club career
Early career
Luer had played non-League football for Hove Rivervale, Whitehawk and Eastbourne Borough, before he was spotted playing Isthmian League football for Burgess Hill Town by Hull scout Dean White.[1][2] Burgess manager Ian Chapman handed him his debut at age 17, and recommended him to his former club Brighton & Hove Albion.[3]
Hull City
He was signed by Premier League club Hull City in January 2015.[4] Later that month he was loaned out to League One side Port Vale.[5] He made his debut in the Football League at Vale Park on 7 February, coming on for Richard Duffy 86 minutes into a 2–2 draw with Bradford City.[6] He returned to Hull after only one further substitute appearance.[7]
Luer made his debut for Hull City on the opening day of the 2015–16 season when he came on as a substitute for Chuba Akpom in a 2–0 win over Huddersfield Town at the KC Stadium.[8] He scored his first goal for the "Tigers" in the League Cup on 11 August, scoring in a 2–2 draw with Accrington Stanley, and then went on to convert the opening penalty of Hull's subsequent penalty shoot-out victory.[9] He scored the only goal of the following round two weeks later to take Hull through at home to Rochdale.[10]
On 9 February 2016, Luer moved to League One side Scunthorpe United on a month-long loan spell.[11]
