Coventry City set €10m asking price as European trio eye key player

The money from their sales was wisely reinvested and the CBS Arena. A number of statement signings were made, with the swoop for Dutch right-back Milan van Ewijk from Eredivisie side Heerenveen among them.

23-year-old van Ewijk impressed in his maiden season with the Championship club and now, it’s claimed he’s the subject of high profile interest back in his native.

According to ESPN, Coventry City star van Ewijk is being eyed by Eredivisie trio PSV, Ajax and Feyenoord. The former are likely to see Jordan Teze depart, and the Sky Blues ace is being considered as a replacement.

Van Ewijk’s performances on these shores have also prompted interest from the Bundesliga, it is said. However, it remains unknown who his German admirers are with an asking price of around €10m (roughly £8.6m) set, ESPN adds.ESPN’s report doesn’t mention a specific stance Coventry City have taken amid high-profile interest in van Ewijk. However, sales of key men last summer indicate how they could react to the interest.

The Sky Blues have ambitions of their own and the Dutch right-back will help them reach those goals. He’s proven to be a standout at the level and would be a loss if he was to depart.

That said though, at the right price, moves for Gyokeres and Hamer were sanctioned last summer.

As such, if those keen are able to conjure up enough money to prise van Ewijk away from Coventry City, a deal may come to fruition. €10m seems like a fair valuation of a player on the up and with plenty of time left on his contract, but time will tell if the interest is firmed up before the window ends later this month.
