COVENTRY City captain Liam Kelly has signed a new one-year deal to extend his stay at the club for another season.

Kelly is Coventry’s longest-serving player, having joined the club in the summer of 2017, and played a crucial role in the final months of the previous campaign to help City reach the play-off final.

The midfielder has been part of two promotion-winning squads and scored in the shootout in Coventry’s heartbreaking Championship play-off final defeat against Luton Town at Wembley.

Coventry manager Mark Robins said: “I am delighted that Liam has signed a new contract with the Sky Blues.

“He has been an integral part of what has been achieved at this football club over the last six years and continues to make a key contribution both on and off the field.

“Having recovered from injury, his influence during the final few months of the season as we reached the play-off final was clear to see and we look forward to continuing to work with him.”
