Northampton Town have signed experienced forward Danny Hylton from Luton Town on a two-year contract.
The Hatters had been talking to 33-year-old Hylton about extending his time with them, but he will now move to Sixfields on 1 July.
Hylton scored four goals in 22 games last season as Luton reached the Championship play-offs.
"He is an excellent professional and his experience and knowhow will be a real asset to us," said boss Jon Brady.
"He will fit in with our style. He has an excellent scoring record and his all-round play is good. He can help get us and keep us high up the pitch."
Hylton has been a member of five promotion-winning teams during his career, two of them back-to-back during six years at Kenilworth Road.
Luton manager Nathan Jones said: "Danny has been my best-ever signing as a manager and I am going to miss him every single day.
"He was the catalyst for all the other great signings that we have had, and has epitomised everything we have done here at Luton with his high energy, underdog spirit, the quality - just everything about us."

Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
