Coventry City manager Mark Robins has said that he is delighted to have signed Leon Clarke on a permanent deal.

Clarke completed his move from Charlton Athletic today by signing a two and a half year deal and speaking about this to Sky Blue Player's Nick Connoll, Mark Robins said: "We knew it was going to be difficult to keep hold of David McGoldrick so we have acted quickly because we wanted to bring someone in that can score goals at this level and Leon can do that.

"We need to fully integrate him into the squad as we've been doing over the last couple of games because he has shown, like he did against us this season, that he can give defences a torrid time and we believe he's the kind of player that can score a lot of goals for us."
