Three players left Coventry City on loan on transfer deadline day, but there were no new arrivals as Frank Lampard's squad was trimmed ahead of the first half of the Premier League season.

Oliver Dovin and Raphael completed late loan moves which will take them away from Coventry for the season.

Dovin will head out to League One side Leyton Orient, while Raphael - who had been the subject of interest from Salford City - will also be playing in League One after joining Burton Albion.

The Sky Blues confirmed both deals long after the 11pm transfer deadline had passed, indicating that the club had been working hard behind the scenes to trim Lampard’s squad.
