Nigeria midfielder, Frank Onyeka is now expected to seal a permanent transfer to Coventry City, DAILY POST reports.

Coventry City confirmed their promotion to the Premier League on Friday night after a hard-earned 1-1 draw with Blackburn Rovers at the Ewood Park.

Onyeka joined the Sky Blues on loan from Brentford in January, with an agreement in place to make the move permanent if Frank Lampard’s side earns promotion to the Premier League.

His arrival sparked an improvement in Coventry’s form, who are making a return to the English top-flight after 25 years.

The 28-year-old has made 11 league appearances for the former FA Cup champions.

Onyeka struggled for regular playing time at Brentford, before making the switch.

He spent last season on loan with Bundesliga club, Augsburg.
