July 4, 2024

Coventry City are working on a deal to sign Hammarby IF goalkeeper Oliver Dovin, according to Swedish news outlet Aftonbladet.

Coventry City are on the lookout for new recruits this summer as they look to push into the Championship play-off places next season.

The Sky Blues enjoyed a memorable campaign thanks to a fantastic run to the FA Cup semi-finals. However, after a poor start to the league, they have too much work to do in trying to salvage a place in the top six.

However, Mark Robins and co will set their sights high for next season and some new signings will only help their bid to re-establish themselves as promotion contenders.

Now reports from Sweden claim that a new goalkeeper is on the radar in the form of Oliver Dovin.

Aftonbladet claim Coventry City are working on a deal to sign the 21-year-old from Allsvenskan side Hammarby. Dovin, who was born in London, kept 28 clean sheets in 84 games for the club and was capped twice with Sweden.

Dovin is said to be the Sky Blues’ top priority as they look to seal a deal.
