Brighton's Ayari joins Coventry on loan

Coventry have confirmed the signing of midfielder Yasin Ayari on a season-long loan.

The 19-year-old moves to the Sky Blues from Brighton, having only joined the Seagulls in January.

Ayari, who represents Sweden internationally, started his professional career at AIK in December 2020.

Coventry manager Mark Robins told the club website: "We're very pleased to welcome Yasin to Coventry City.

"He is a versatile player who can play across the midfield area, but predominantly central, and is technically adept too with pace and energy.

"He had an impressive spell at AIK in Sweden where he played a lot of games for his age and is highly thought of at Brighton, who signed him in January.

"We'd like to thank Brighton for allowing Yasin to join us on loan now and we look forward to working with him this season."
