Coventry City MD Chris Anderson has said that Plan A is for City's Academy to play in Coventry.
Speaking to the Coventry Observer, Mr Anderson, who said that City had been served notice to leave the Alan Higgs Centre next June said: “Our Plan A is to play in Coventry and for our academy to train in Coventry. We want to ensure Plan A is completely exhausted and deemed totally not feasible before publicly speaking about any alternatives.
“The council have the ultimate power in terms of their ability to influence various parties, so have the most influence on the club training and playing in Coventry.
“Any plan that is to occur in Coventry will stand a greater chance of success if supported by them. We need for the council to make it easier, not harder, for the football club to operate in Coventry.
“There is a strict set of technical requirements we have to fulfil to retain our Category 2 status, which are non-negotiable – not from our end, but as far as the Premier League are concerned in order to fulfill the upcoming audit by the football authorities.
“It’s not simply a matter of finding some pitches to play on and negotiating the use of pitches.
“There is no negotiation to be had with other parties around a table because the football club doesn’t have a choice to either comply or not comply with those technical requirements, which have been communicated to CSF.
“The first step has to be to establish if they can offer what we need; they have yet to confirm if they can if the Wasps move in.
“Building an academy training ground somewhere else in Coventry seems unlikely as there are no obvious sites.”
