Playmaker till Coventry
CCFC fortsätter satsningen.
Coventry city har signat Adam Barton från Preston NE, kontraktet ligger på 3 år och Bartons uppgift blir förmodligen att gå in i Oliver Norwoods tidigare roll som playmaker.
"The young midfielder, who has been capped by Northern Ireland, has played more than 50 games for Preston after making his debut as a 19-year-old.
A string of other clubs have shown interest in Barton which made it all the more pleasing for City manager Andy Thorn to land him.
He said: “This is a great signing for us. Adam is a big talent and we think he can do extremely well for us. We’ve brought in a really good blend of younger players and experience so far this summer and Adam is another very good addition.
“He’s attracted a lot of attention from other clubs but we have sold to him what a fantastic opportunity this is for him and that he will be given a chance to shine here at Coventry.
“We can’t wait to get him linking up with the other boys and getting him some games under his belt.”
Meanwhile the club has confirmed it will not be signing Brazilian striker Bruno Cazarine after his spell with the Sky Blues – but will be looking at several more players on trial before the season kicks off at Yeovil."
