Your Coventry City Daily Digest for Monday 6 July 2026. World Cup watch: Sky Blue Haji Wright and the USA face Belgium in the last 16 tonight, though after FIFA suspended Balogun's red-card ban, Wright drops from a likely start to a bench hope; per ESPN and CNBC the ban was reviewed after President Trump asked FIFA to look at it, with Belgium's FA said to be "astonished" - reported and attributed, we report the row and take no side. In the market, Coventry are reported to be in talks for Goztepe midfielder Anthony Dennis (around 15m euros) to sit alongside Frank Onyeka, though it is talks-level only off a single Turkish origin, outcome open and not done. The club-record Aurele Amenda deal still awaits official confirmation; a second, improved Coventry bid for Brighton keeper Carl Rushworth has also been rejected, with Brighton wanting north of 20m and Mark Travers a back-up option; plus forward links to Lois Openda, Adama Traore, Callum Wilson and Matheus Martins, and Norman Bassette tipped for an exit. Rumour and fact clearly flagged, sources named. Play Up, Sky Blues!
