Luke David Berry (born 12 July 1992) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Charlton Athletic.

On 29 July 2014, Berry signed for Barnsley, who were newly relegated into League One on a three-year contract for an undisclosed fee.

[4] [5] Berry scored his first goal for Barnsley in a Football League Trophy tie against Oldham Athletic on 7 October 2014, which they lost 4–2 in a penalty shoot-out after the match finished as a 2–2 draw.
