SIGNING: #CCFC can confirm the signing of Jordan Turnbull on a three-year contract
Mon 15 Aug 2016 18:30
The Sky Blues have made their sixth new signing of the summer, as the Saints defender pens a three-year deal…
21-year old defender Jordan Turnbull has joined the Sky Blues from Premier League outfit Southampton for an undisclosed fee.
Turnbull started his career within the youth system at Swindon Town, before later joining Southampton’s Academy.
The 6ft 1” centre-back spent consecutive campaigns on season-long loans at the Robins, appearing 51 times during 2014/15 and a further 46 times during 2015/16, making him one of the most reliable defenders at the club.
Turnbull has also featured for England’s international youth team setup, having represented the young Lions at Under-19 and Under-20 level.
The defender is set to take the #4 shirt at the Sky Blues and will be eligible to feature for the club from Saturday onwards, as City take on Bradford.
Technical Director, Mark Venus said: “We have identified central defence as a position we needed to strengthen and Jordan was a player we have tracked all summer.
“We are pleased to have signed him on a long-term contract and this is a demonstration of the commitment the club are showing.”
Coventry City Manager, Tony Mowbray said: “I’m pleased to get the signing of Jordan over the line, as we continue to strengthen the squad for this season.
“Jordan played twice against us last season and impressed me both times with his accomplished performance; both in possession of the ball and defensively.
“He will strengthen our options at the back and I am looking forward to working with him over the course of the season and beyond.”

Turnbull makes permanent move to Coventry
Mon 15 Aug 2016 14:05
Southampton Football Club can confirm defender Jordan Turnbull has joined League 1 side Coventry City for an undisclosed fee.
The 21 year-old, who spent last season on loan at Swindon Town, has joined Tony Mowbray's Sky Blues on a permanent deal.
Turnbull joined Southampton's Academy in 2007, moving from Swindon Town's youth setup, and featured regularly for Saints' Under-18s and development side up until 2014.
The defender's form saw him represent England at Under-19 and Under-20 youth level, before he enjoyed his first taste of the Football League during a loan spell with the Robins during the 2014/15 campaign.
After spending the 2015/16 campaign back at the County Ground, Turnbull made two appearances for Claude Puel's first team during pre-season, but has now been allowed to make the move to the Ricoh Arena on a permanent basis.
Everyone at Southampton Football Club would like to wish Jordan the very best for the future.

I thought Mowbray looked down in the dumps for the last couple of matches but now we know it's just because he's accidently cut his thumb off

Interesting comment from a Saints fan
@SouthamptonFC @JordanTurnbull_ @Coventry_City don't understand he would have been a great addition to the squad. Good luck Jordan

So we now have Willis, Harries and Turnbull. Three very good young centre halves at this level. All on long ish deals. Not sure about Willis, Harries signed a four year contract. Add to that Stokes too. Be nice to get Kane Smith in too. The future is looking good. More than happy.
