Coventry City narrowly missed out on securing a second consecutive top-six finish in the Championship, despite a successful season highlighted by a memorable run to the FA Cup semi-finals. Manager Mark Robins and his team were on the cusp of a chance to fight for promotion to the Premier League for a second year in a row, following their play-off final defeat last year to Luton Town on penalties.
As the season draws to a close, attention now turns to the upcoming transfer window and potential changes to the squad ahead of the new campaign in August. However, there are lingering questions about certain players who may have played their final game for Coventry, particularly against QPR.
One player whose future is uncertain is Callum O’Hare, as his contract is set to expire this summer. Despite his key contributions to the team after returning from injury, clubs like Fulham, Everton, Celtic, and Rangers are reportedly interested in the midfielder. With time ticking, negotiations for a new deal with O’Hare are crucial for the Sky Blues.
Liam Kelly, a loyal servant to Coventry since his arrival in 2017, may also be facing an exit as his game time diminishes. The 34-year-old midfielder’s contract is nearing its end, suggesting his tenure at the club may be over.
Goalkeeper Simon Moore, who joined Coventry in 2021, is likely to depart once his contract expires in June after falling down the pecking order. Similarly, forward Matty Godden, although not a free agent until 2025, could seek a move away in search of more consistent playing time, especially with the emergence of Ellis Simms in the team.
As Coventry City navigates the changing landscape of its squad, decisions will need to be made regarding the futures of key players like O’Hare, Kelly, Moore, and Godden to ensure the team remains competitive in the seasons to come.
