Luke Armstrong

Luke Armstrong of Carlisle United was born in Durham, England on 2 July 1996 (age 30).

Luke Armstrong, born on 2 July 1996 (age 30), is an English striker with Carlisle United, where he wears the number 29 shirt. His current market value is around £170,000, according to Transfermarkt.

His career is most clearly shaped by his time at Harrogate Town. The 2022-23 season was his most productive league campaign, with 12 goals in 36 appearances, giving him the sort of return that tends to keep a lower-league striker in work without inviting too much poetry.

Armstrong is now at Carlisle United, continuing a career built around centre-forward duties and a solid scoring spell at Harrogate rather than headline turns elsewhere.

His moves trace a sequence of loans and undisclosed transfers: loaned to Hartlepool United from Salford City in December 2020; transferred to Harrogate Town for an undisclosed fee in July 2021; transferred to Carlisle United for an undisclosed fee in January 2024; loaned to Motherwell in January 2025; and loaned from Motherwell back to Carlisle United in June 2025 (term listed as R F Loan) – the pattern indicates lateral movement between similar-level clubs rather than a sustained step up.
