Newly promoted Premier League side Coventry City has contacted Juventus to inquire about a deal for Loïs Openda, a 26-year-old Belgian international. It is reported that the club is considering a loan, which could potentially include an option or an obligation to buy the striker.
Openda's future at Juventus is considered uncertain following a difficult season, and Juventus is seeking to transfer him after his purchase option from RB Leipzig, valued at over €40 million, was automatically activated. Other clubs, including Leeds and Bournemouth, have also been linked with the player, but it is said that Coventry is the first to make a formal approach. At Coventry, Openda would be managed by Frank Lampard, who reportedly has a high opinion of the player. The striker has 33 caps and 3 goals for Belgium. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €32.00m.
