Manager Harry Kewell said that "it was disappointing that he didn't get his goal but he worked very hard and I think he is a special talent". [2] He entered negotiations with the club regarding a new contract at the end of the 2022–23 season. [3]

In October 2023, Luamba signed for League Two club Salford City, joining the club's reserve team until the end of the season. [4]
