“A risk worth taking” – Callum O’Hare development emerges at Coventry City: The verdict

With Callum O’Hare having just six months left on his contract at Coventry City, the January transfer window was always going to bring about plenty of speculation over his future.

Many clubs have been credited with an interest, with the likes of Burnley, Southampton and Leicester City having recently been reported to have made offers for the player this month.

However, more recent reports have now set the Sky Blues’ stance on their star man clear this month – he is going nowhere.

According to Football Insider, Mark Robins’ side are set to resist all offers for the 25-year-old although he could walk away for nothing in the summer.

The report claims that their Sky Blues sources have told them that a potential promotion to the Premier League is considered more valuable than any fee that the club could get for the player this month, hence their current stance.

O’Hare has been in fine form for the club since returning from injury, registering five goals and one assist in just eight league starts this season to date.

With the above in mind, it begs the question, are the Sky Blues right to take such a stance on O’Hare when there is a very real possibility that he could depart.

From comments made by Sky Blues boss Mark Robins we know that the club have made O’Hare a strong contract offer, and the player is yet to sign.

It is, therefore, arguably a big risk for the Sky Blues to keep him and potentially miss out on a big transfer fee.

One of our writers, below, though, feels that is risk very much worth taking.
