According to a recent story from CoventryLive, which was made public on Wednesday afternoon, Frank Lampard, who succeeded long-time former manager Mark Robins in November, is getting close to making his first signing at the CBS Arena.
In what may turn out to be an intriguing acquisition for the Sky Blues as they attempt to achieve a play-off berth, Coventry, who have been lacking wing options, will now be boosted by the arrival of Matondo.
Rabbi Matondo of Rangers is expected to join Coventry City due to interest from Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland. According to the previously cited source, Coventry is expected to finalise a loan agreement for Matondo, with the possibility of a permanent transfer for £2 million in the summer.
The Wales international winger, who started his career at his boyhood club Cardiff City and previously played in the Championship while on loan at Stoke, has struggled at Rangers this season due to a hamstring injury.
Even though Matondo has only made two appearances for Rangers in 2024–2025 league play, second-tier suitors have not been put off; the attacker has been linked to moves from Sheffield Wednesday and Sunderland, who are hoping to advance automatically.

Though the article also notes that the Sky Blues have the option to buy the player in the summer for £2 million, Coventry appears to have won the race for the 25-year-old’s signing in an initial loan swoop.
