Patrick Bamford (Free Agent)
October 2025
Following his Leeds exit, Bamford trained with Championship leaders Coventry to maintain fitness, with Lampard offering facilities while clarifying no immediate deal. The 32-year-old, capped once by England, seeks the right role after injury-hit years. Coventry will reassess post-medical data and squad needs before deciding on a short-term contract ahead of the winter window.
Haji Wright (Coventry City)
October 2025
Coventry striker Haji Wright has been urged to reject Premier League approaches in January and continue his prolific Championship campaign under Frank Lampard. The American forward has scored nine goals in eleven appearances this season, propelling Coventry to the top of the table.
Former striker Matt Jansen told GOAL that Wright should “avoid disruption ahead of the World Cup,” praising his maturity and form. Wright credited Lampard for reigniting his career and building confidence in training. Now settled and back in the U.S. national team setup, Wright’s focus remains on securing promotion and a strong pre-World Cup run.
