Coventry City manager Mark Robins has said that he is after a number nine.
Robins told BBC Coventry & Warwickshire: “The No.9 is the area we need to strengthen, without a shadow of a doubt, and bring the right one in.
“We know we have got to do it and beig able to afford the right one is a balancing act, so we have to try to do something that gives the lads we have got some help and support because they can’t sustain it.
