Swindon Town are in talks to bring Coventry City midfielder Ryan Howley in on loan, as reported by journalist Pete O’Rourke. Despite a disappointing start to the season with a loss to Stoke City, Coventry City is looking to bounce back and compete for a spot in the play-offs.
After a tough start last season cost them in the end, Coventry City is determined to avoid a repeat this time around. The team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Stoke City in their opening match, but have made some promising signings including Jack Rudoni, Oliver Dovin, Brandon Thomas-Asante, and Raphael Borges Rodrigues. Additionally, Ephron Mason-Clark and Luis Binks have joined permanently to strengthen the squad.
Now, it seems that Ryan Howley could be departing on loan. The 20-year-old, who spent last season at Dundee in Scotland, is in discussions with Swindon Town regarding a potential move. With limited playing time at Dundee and competition for spots at Coventry City, a loan move could provide Howley with valuable experience to further his development.
It’s possible that Howley won’t be the only player leaving on loan, as goalkeeper Cian Tyler and midfielder Kai Andrews could also benefit from gaining more playing time elsewhere. With new signings and competition for spots in the squad, loan moves could be the best option for these young players to continue their development. Only time will tell how these potential moves will unfold before the end of the transfer window.
