Conway joins: 2 signings Coventry City should try make before Stoke match on August 10th

04/08/2024 Raymond 0

Nottingham Forest club captain Joe Worrall is facing an uncertain future at the City Ground, with a summer exit likely. Coventry City should persist in their efforts to sign the 27-year-old to strengthen the heart of their defense.

Worrall, who has made 226 appearances for Forest since joining at age 14, seems set to end his 13-year association with the club. Despite playing a key role in their 2022 promotion to the Premier League, he has been used sparingly since and was loaned out to Besiktas last season. Coventry manager Mark Robins has emphasized the need to add leadership to his squad following the departures of players like Kelly and Godden earlier in the summer. Worrall, with his experience and quality, would be an excellent addition to the backline for the new campaign.

Securing an agreement with Forest for Worrall before August 10 would be an ideal move for Coventry, potentially key to pushing them back into the play-off places for the 2024/25 season.

“Worth a gamble” – Swansea, Sunderland, Birmingham City and Coventry urged to make move for Notts County ace

Pundit Carlton Palmer has identified Notts County striker Macaulay Langstaff as a prime target for clubs such as Swansea City, Sunderland, Birmingham City, and Coventry City this transfer window. Langstaff’s impact since joining Notts from Gateshead in 2022 has been significant, scoring 41 goals in his debut season to propel the Magpies to promotion from the National League.

Despite initial doubts about his ability to perform in League Two, Langstaff continued to shine, finishing as the top scorer in the EFL with 28 league goals this season. His impressive form has not gone unnoticed, with interest reportedly coming from clubs like Birmingham, Sunderland, Peterborough United, Derby County, Wrexham, Hearts, and Coventry earlier in the year.

Sheffield Wednesday: Josh Windass and Will Vaulks developments will not help Dejphon Chansiri – View

16/06/2024 Raymond 0

Sheffield Wednesday faces a pivotal summer after securing their Championship status. The Owls seemed set for an immediate return to League One following a disastrous start under Xisco Munoz. However, under Danny Rohl’s guidance, they managed a remarkable turnaround, finishing 20th and ensuring their survival. Fears of losing Rohl were alleviated when he signed a new long-term contract last month.

Rohl now focuses on rebuilding the squad, with loanees like James Beadle and Jeff Hendrick returning to their parent clubs, and several players, including Ciaran Brennan and George Byers, being released. Cameron Dawson, Liam Palmer, Dominic Iorfa, Di’Shon Bernard, Will Vaulks, Barry Bannan, and Josh Windass were offered new deals, but only Palmer and Bannan have committed so far. Dawson seeks regular first-team football elsewhere, and Vaulks has joined Oxford United, while Windass, amid interest from multiple clubs, is the latest to reject a new contract. These departures heighten scrutiny on owner Dejphon Chansiri as the club navigates this crucial period.

If Wouter Burger leaves Stoke City for Spurs, Coventry City could hold ideal replacement: View

26/05/2024 Raymond 0

Stoke City is gearing up for the 2024/25 Championship season, determined to improve on their lackluster performance from the previous year. Finishing in 17th place and narrowly avoiding relegation by six points, the team faces significant pressure to climb the standings under the leadership of manager Steven Schumacher, who is entering his first full season at the helm.

With the summer transfer window open and the club’s retained list announced, Stoke is focusing on strengthening key areas of their squad to ensure a successful season ahead. However, the team’s plans might be disrupted as one of their standout players, Wouter Burger, has attracted interest from Premier League clubs. Tottenham Hotspur and Sheffield United are reportedly keen on signing Burger, who joined Stoke just last year on a four-year contract.

Burger’s arrival at Stoke’s bet365 Stadium was unexpected, given his links to higher-tier clubs. Nonetheless, his decision to join the Potters has proven wise. The 23-year-old played 39 Championship games, scoring three goals and providing four assists, becoming a crucial player for Schumacher. Despite his recent arrival, Burger’s leadership qualities shone through, as he captained the team in Josh Laurent’s absence on nine occasions.
