Coventry City have signed Everton defender Matthew Pennington on a youth loan until January 4th.


The 20-year old defender had two loan spells at Tranmere Rovers during the 2013/14 season and made 17 appearances for the Merseyside club, scoring two goals.


Pennington can play in central defence and at right-back, and received a cap for the England Under-19s in March 2013.


City manager Steven Pressley believes the Warrington-born defender will add strength to the City squad over a busy Christmas period.


Pressley said: "Matthew impressed us playing for Tranmere last season when we played against them at Prenton Park.


"He is a versatile defender who can fill a variety of positions across the back-line which will be invaluable over the Christmas period.


"He has featured regularly for Everton Under-21s this season and we're delighted to bring Matthew to the club."

Short term cover with Hines, Willis and Phillips all carrying injuries at the moment.

Forgot Charles Cook and Daniels

 

[LJC_CCFC]

CM was surely the priority, however with Reda moving to LB perhaps we could line up Phillips Martin Pennington Reda with Webster dropping out.

good point......, although interestingly, so does CCFC.co.uk

Or the take over happens (fingers crossed).

 

[percy]

really impressed with this lad today. defended well and looked assured on the ball. very good debut.

 

[ccfc unlimited]

ok player not at all impressive

 

[speedie87]

Was motm today. Bit of Stephen warnock about him

 

[Silence_Is_The_Enemy]

seemed to bottle a few challenges 2nd half when he was down my side of the field didnt really notice him 1st. he may have cost us the game heading the ball wide when madine was running in to head it on target (not blaming him just found himself in the way)

 

[sw88]

ok player not at all impressive

Really? Thought he was by far our best player aside from Madine. For a debutant who's only trained once, he looked like he'd played with our lot more than the rest of them put together! Like Fleck; anyone would have thought he'd have never played with the rest of the team before. He was dire
