Onyeka Set For Permanent Coventry City Move After Promotion

Nigeria international Frank Onyeka is poised to complete a permanent transfer to Coventry City, following the club’s promotion to the Premier League, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Coventry City secured their return to the top flight on Friday night after battling to a 1-1 draw against Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.

Onyeka joined the Sky Blues on loan from Brentford in January, with a clause in the agreement that would see the move made permanent if Frank Lampard’s side achieved promotion.

The midfielder’s arrival coincided with an upturn in form for Coventry, who have now ended a 25-year absence from the Premier League.

The 28-year-old has featured in 11 league matches for the former FA Cup winners since his arrival.

Prior to his move, Onyeka found game time limited at Brentford and spent last season on loan at German Bundesliga side FC Augsburg.
