Transfer Rumour Ephron Mason-Clark (8 Viewers)

Where’s the benefit of signing a winger but not having him available straight away

And it's not as if he's a 19/20 year old coming through. I can only imagine we got him for a cut price, so we agreed to loan him back. Risky though, what happens if he gets a bad injury.

Has to be RJJ then.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Could do with a loan ourselves even if it's just to give sakamoto or Haji a 20 minute rest in matches

Breaking! In-coming with a twist​

Coventry City are set to make a deadline day signing this evening, although the deal is not straight-forward.

CoventryLive understands that the Sky Blues have agreed a long-term deal for a player but that he will be immediately loaned back to the selling club for the remainder of the 2023/24 season.

I understand that the Sky Blues will be doing no further business tonight, either in or out of the club.

More details to come...

What an anticlimax, shall we just log off now.

 

[gspotgaz]

Imagine he does his ACL second half of season

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Why not Mason-clarke?

 

[ptr]

Maybe it's the younger double barreled named winged ?

I was hoping that was a possibility but he’s not made an appearance for them, pointless him going back on loan.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Loan back probably reduces the fee. Good deal.

That would make more sense.

Beat me to it.

 

[Deity]

Better hope Wright and Sakamoto don't break down then. Ridiculous.

Maybe the club think they are beating many other clubs to the player by agreeing to this clause. If he’s coming for 4 years then it makes sense to secure him.

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Maybe Turner is wrong and he isn’t loaned back? We can hope

What happens if he gets injured playing for them?

It’s really not when we need a wide forward to compete now

 

[ptr]

No business after the signing/loan back is confirmed. Interesting.

Makes you wonder why we aren't bringing anyone in on loan if this is the best we could do with this one.

The prospect of relying on someone like Tavares is grim.

 

[ptr]

Big step up the premier league not sure he will be ready. Want him now.

 

[Nick]

If it's a winger loaned back, probably won't play with them next year now.

 

[Balli001]

Not sure many of you lot would cope being a top side. This kind if deal is done all the time at that level.

 

[gspotgaz]

find these sign-loan straight back deals bizarre

 

[skybluecam]

Turner says signing with loan back for the season

Surely fucking not, what's the point?

 

[Cally Fedora]

Yeah. But maybe we couldn’t get one.

When you have an already big squad. We don't.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Presumably whoever it is must be a top target if we are willing to loan them back

 

[mark82]

Defender feels like it would make more sense with a loan back.

 

[Balli001]

For a long term asset and the sake of 6 months. Don't see the issue personally

 

[shmmeee]

What happens if he got injured playing for us?

If his plane back crashes halfway between Coventry and Peterborough where do they bury the survivors?

 

[mark82]

Depends who it is. If it's Mason-Clark he'll be very nearly 25 by the start of next season. Not that 25 is old, but unusual for a player who isn't young.

 

[Matt smith]

Surely fucking not, what's the point?

Seriously? Come on mate I’m annoyed but this guy looks a class act and will be a great signing for us

 

[bawtryneal]

We could be in the Premier League next season and to big a jump from league one to Premier League.

 

[Mr Panda]

If he’s the best in League One then he’ll hopefully be worth the wait.

Doesn’t suit us right now but Doug is an investor - if it means we get a cut price deal or jump ahead of other suitors for a longer term gain - he’ll probably take it

 

[ptr]

That’s why MacAnthony is happy to go live at 9. Good deal for them I should imagine.

 

[Mr Panda]

Though I am hoping Turner is just wrong on this detail
