Jonny Vilstrup

Johnny Pederson VISTRUP

Johnny had played 150 games for Danish top division side Lyngby, helping them to two titles, when Luton manager Terry Westley was alerted to his availability.
Despite competition from Premiership clubs, Westley got his man for £205,000 in September 1995. A goalscoring midfielder with the reputation of having the hardest shot in Danish football, Johnny failed to enhance his reputation at Kenilworth Road, albeit in a poor Luton side destined for relegation.
A change of manager saw him out of favour and after six months he was back in Denmark with AGF of Aarhus, initially on loan, who he immediately helped to the Danish Cup final earning rave reviews along the way!
Johnny went on to own a massage and acupuncture clinic in Copenhagen.
