Coventry City and Stoke City are both eyeing up Lausanne-Sport midfielder Alvyn Sanches, according to a report from The Express. Both clubs are looking to strengthen their squads for the upcoming season, with Coventry City falling short of the play-offs and Stoke City fighting relegation.
Sanches, a 21-year-old Swiss prospect, is valued at £4.3m and has caught the attention of clubs across Europe, including Celtic. Known for his versatility in midfield and attack, Sanches scored six goals in 27 games last season and is a regular for Switzerland at youth level.
With reports suggesting Sanches will be leaving Lausanne-Sport in the coming weeks, Coventry City and Stoke City may face competition from other clubs to secure his signature. Both clubs have shown a willingness to spend in the transfer market, making them strong contenders for Sanches’ services.
Coventry City could benefit from Sanches’ attacking threat in midfield, especially with the potential departure of Callum O’Hare. Stoke City, on the other hand, may see Sanches as a valuable addition to their midfield options, particularly with uncertainties over the futures of Luke Cundle and Daniel Johnson.
As the transfer window approaches, it remains to be seen whether Coventry City and Stoke City will make a move for Sanches, but the young midfielder could be a player to watch in the Championship next season.
