Coventry City, set to make their return to the Premier League for the 2026-2027 season, has officially secured the permanent transfer of Frank Onyeka from Brentford. The Nigerian midfielder now definitively joins the Sky Blues, concluding his successful loan spell.
The Nigerian international first arrived at City on a temporary basis last January. With the summer transfer window now open, his definitive move from the Bees has been triggered. Onyeka proved to be a pivotal figure, contributing significantly to Manager Frank Lampard’s side clinching the Sky Bet Championship title. He participated in 14 matches, notably scoring a superb goal in a critical encounter against Derby County this past April.
At 28 years old, Onyeka brings a wealth of Premier League experience, having played 75 top-flight matches during his time with Brentford. This permanent move marks an important step for the player, a key figure in West African football, though the precise duration of his new contract has not been revealed.
