Gambin has impressed in recent weeks for the Hatters, playing a big role in points picked up against Cambridge United and the Sky Blues. However, the 25-year-old has been called up by the Malta international side, which means he will be unavailable for selection against his former side Barnet a week on Saturday.
"We would have liked to have a bit of a compromise on it, but it's not to be," Jones explained. "I have got a relationship with their manager, their new manager. To be fair he's just come in, so he's trying to get as much of a feel-good factor and so he wants all of his best players to go and Luke fortunately or unfortunately is one of his better players, one of his full-time players and one that he can call on from overseas.
"It's slightly frustrating for us and for Luke. It's understandable but it doesn't make it any easier to swallow.
