Having recently lost their FA Cup semi-final to Manchester United by the most miniscule of offside decisions, so tight in fact that it had to be reviewed by VAR, Coventry City are set to be dealt another bitter blow.
According to Football Insider sources, highly-regarded attacking midfielder, Callum O’Hare, has indicated to the club that he will leave them at the end of the current Championship campaign.
A poor run of recent form has seen the Sky Blues fall out of contention for a Play Off place, and another season in the English second-tier clearly doesn’t appeal to the 25-year-old.
Callum O’Hare to spark auction between Villa and West Ham?
To that end, a move away is certain, and the outlet suggest either a return to Aston Villa, where O’Hare learnt his craft, or a switch to West Ham United, is a possibility.
Both Premier League clubs have had reasonable enough seasons, with the Villains still pushing for a finish in the Champions League positions.
Tottenham are seven points behind the Midlanders in the race for a top-four finish, and even if the Lilywhites win their two games in hand, they’ll be a point behind.
If Unai Emery can keep his side playing at their best level for their final three games, a place in the top-tier European competition next season is assured.
Considering where the club were when he took over from Steven Gerrard, that’s quite the feat.
West Ham have an outside chance of European football, but with David Moyes expected to leave, theirs is a project in transition once more.
Whilst no firm decision has been made by O’Hare at this juncture, if it was a straight choice between West Ham and Aston Villa, there are a number of reasons why the latter present a more attractive proposition.
