Championship transfer news as rivals move for strikers previously on Coventry City radar
Championship transfer news from CoventryLive as Jerry Yates and Macaulay Langstaff appear to be on the move, months after being linked with the Sky Blues
A striker who was linked with Coventry City last summer is set for another move, just 12 months on from joining one of the Sky Blues’ Championship rivals.
Yates, meanwhile, signed for Swansea City for a reported £2.5m, but failed to hit his previous season’s heights, scoring eight league goals and one in the FA Cup. Now, just a year into his three year deal at the Liberty Stadium, Yates is ‘set’ to join newly-promoted Derby County on loan.
It’s not yet clear if the Rams will have any option or obligation to buy placed into the deal but the report says the move is likely to be completed in the next few days, with the Swans understood to be working hard on bringing another striker through the door over the coming weeks.
One man who has been strongly linked is another striker who has been linked with interest from the Sky Blues in the past, Notts County’s Macaulay Langstaff, who was understood to have been looked at by City scouts ahead of last January’s transfer window.
