Coventry are signing Dan Bentley from Wolves on a free transfer to be their back-up goalkeeper.

The deal is expected to be confirmed tomorrow.

As per Talking Wolves.

Same rumour is saying that this is happening because Sa is staying, which is interesting. Surely also means Johnstone is staying, as surely we still need a homegrown keeper?

Tolu with another goal and assist for Ajax in limited minutes played. Hope he keeps doing well and we can sell him for a bunch later on.

I believe they have a £17m option agreed, so it sadly won't impact the price. It will likely help convince them to take up said option, mind. ?

Sa to start, Bentley to leave.

Hopefully, Krejci and Hugo start too, with Toti and Wolfe leaving. Here's to hoping!

Agreed, Gdawg, with those three starting we'd suddenly look half decent. Sadly, it depends on if the players are willing. It feels like their omission up till now is likely quite telling. ?

Coventry Observer now reporting Dan Bentley move, so it looks like that deal is going ahead.

Why's he being allowed to leave on a free?

We signed him on a free so can't exactly complain.

Because it would be a nominal fee, and he's generally just not very good. Hopefully, Sa is staying and we bring in an up and coming keeper alongside Ruddy. I imagine Johnstone is off.

Possibly, it's a free as a sweetener for Simms coming to us? Or maybe that's just wishful thinking.

Great news. Bentley is awful. Sa is far, far superior anyway. Just need to sell Toti now. Please, please, please.
