With new signing Yann Gboho, Coventry City are getting an exciting and unpredictable attacker who loves having the ball at his feet.
That is the view of Hugues Sionis, L’Equipe’s reporter covering the 25-year-old’s former club Toulouse. Speaking to The Phoenix, Sionis painted a picture of an attacking midfielder with the ability – and willingness – to get the CBS Arena crowd on their feet.
‘He’s a very skilful player,’ he says. ‘Last season in Ligue 1 he was the best player of this type. In every match he was trying to beat opponents with skill. He was a player who made the difference.’
