Coventry City can recruit any free agent they like as long as no important ace are injured.

The transfer market has already ended, but clubs can still sign free agents, according to the most recent Coventry City news from CoventryLive.

Coventry City is still allowed to sign new players even if the summer transfer season has ended since the team may still sign free agents. Despite avoiding the possibility in the past, Mark Robins now acknowledges that with the growing number of injuries to important players, he will consider all of his options.

Star wing-back Milan van Ewijk is the latest victim, suffering a “significant” muscle rupture and expected to miss an undetermined amount of time. That information was released just a few days after it was revealed that important midfielder Ben Sheaf had an adductor injury that would keep him out for at least six weeks.

A total of 11 new players joined the Sky Blues during the summer transfer window, while 14 others left, making Robins’ roster a little smaller than it was the year before. On the day of the transfer deadline, the management wanted two additional players—a central defender and a midfielder—but only acquired one when Barnsley center-back Liam Kitching signed a four-year, £4.5 million contract.

Coventry City manager Mark Robins discusses the free transfer option in light of the midfield issue.

However, clubs do have an opportunity to address any roster gaps they may have outside of the transfer window by signing free agents. Players are still accessible.
