According to a number of reliable sources, the deal to sign Ethan Pinnock has taken a major step forward. After Brentford agreed to Coventry's latest bid for the player, the focus has now shifted to personal terms as they look to get a deal done. The defender is said to be receptive to the move, which would see him join an already talented squad ahead of the run-in. Coventry remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Crystal Palace continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. Alongside this, Brentford are said to be exploring Mamadou Sangare with Coventry likewise connected to Daniel Bentley, Caleb Marfo Yirenkyi and Mykhailo Mudryk.
