It appears that Coventry City has bounced back to their playoff form in recent months after a slow start to the season. Despite narrowly missing out on promotion last year after a heartbreaking defeat to Luton Town in the playoff final, Mark Robins’ side experienced a bit of a setback with key players leaving in the summer transfer window.

However, they have managed to overcome these challenges and are currently in contention for another top-six finish. With aspirations to secure promotion to the top flight, Coventry City aims to surpass last year’s achievements.

Looking ahead, there is speculation that more important players could depart from the CBS Arena this summer. This suggests potential changes to the squad as the club prepares for the upcoming season.

Players that could depart Coventry in 2024
Player Name Joined club Contract expiration
Callum O’Hare 2020 2024
Liam Kelly 2017 2024
Simon Moore 2021 2024
Ben Sheaf 2021 2026

Callum O’Hare celebrates Coventry City goal as Ellis Simms watches on

Callum O’Hare has been a standout figure for Robins’ side since getting back to full fitness near the end of 2023.

The midfielder has scored some important goals this season to help power the team’s rise up the table and into the play-off battle.

However, his contract is set to expire at the end of the campaign, which would allow him to walk away from the club for nothing.

It would be a huge blow if he were to depart, with talks ongoing over a new deal.

O’Hare has been the subject of transfer interest in the past, with the likes of Southampton, Leicester City, and Burnley among the clubs monitoring his future.

2Liam Kelly

Liam Kelly Coventry City

Liam Kelly has been an important squad player for Coventry since joining the club in the summer of 2017.

He has been with the Sky Blues on their rise from League Two to the Championship play-off final.

Given the circumstances, a departure from Coventry City in June appears to be a possibility for this player, especially considering his successful seven-year tenure with the club. This suggests that he may seek new opportunities elsewhere to continue his football career.

3Simon Moore

It appears that Simon Moore, the goalkeeper for Coventry City, has been consistently third choice for the team this season. Despite being with the club since 2021, he has not seen much playing time, with Brad Collins and Ben Wilson preferred ahead of him. Moore’s contract is set to expire at the end of the current season, and given his lack of game time, it’s probable that he will depart from the club. He last played for Coventry in an FA Cup third-round defeat to Wrexham in January 2023.

4Ben Sheaf

It seems that Ben Sheaf holds a significant role within Coventry City’s squad as they aim for promotion to the Premier League. Despite facing a hamstring injury, he has been a consistent presence in the team, especially after Gustavo Hamer’s departure. Coventry City’s manager, Mark Robins, is eager to ensure Sheaf plays a crucial role in the team’s push for promotion once he returns from injury.

In January, there were reports indicating that Luton Town had shown interest in signing the 26-year-old midfielder. Although no deal materialized during that transfer window, it’s suggested that Luton could revive their interest in Sheaf once the current season concludes. This indicates potential transfer activity for Sheaf in the upcoming transfer windows.
