BREAKING NEWS: Coventry City isn’t giving up on signing £110 million Arsenal star, and they’re giving three players a chance to try and seal the deal.

Further details have emerged in the on-going speculation that Coventry City are set to sign Red Star Belgrade midfielder Marko Stamenic.

Serbian publication Sportal reported last week that the club, otherwise known as FK Crvena Zvezda, have sold the holding midfielder to the Sky Blues for a ‘staggering €5m’ (£4.2m) only a year after joining the club for free from Copenhagen.

Another Serbian outlet, Mozzart Sport, has corroborated those claims and added that although the club “quickly accepted Coventry ’s offer,” it says the player “hesitated and hesitated” during the day the deal was being negotiated. The report states that the selling club have also negotiated a 10 percent sell-on clause for the next sale of the player, albeit that is fairly standard these days but, nevertheless, it is added detail to the claims that Stamenic is heading to the Championship club.

Meanwhile, Red Star have this week announced the signing of central midfielder Dalsio Gomes on a two-year contract from APOEL Nicosia, although it is not known if the Portuguese/ Guinea-Bissau national is seen as a direct replacement for Stamenic.
