Why Coventry are interested in Brighton midfielder  

Coventry could see him as someone who would provide them with more competition and depth in the middle of the park as they look to get into the play-offs again.

The Scotland youth international spent the last campaign on loan at Northampton and helped them gain promotion from League Two under Jon Brady. He was then given the green light to link up with the Cobblers for a second spell over the summer and has adapted with ease to the step up a division.

Leonard has been on the books at Brighton since 2018 having previously played for Rangers and Hearts.

The Glasgow-born man has made two senior appearances for the Seagulls and has gained plenty of experience out with Northampton.

His chances of breaking into Roberto De Zerbi’s starting XI over the next few years are slim though due to the top quality options that his parent club have in his position at their disposal. Therefore, a switch to a team in the second tier such as Coventry, or Swansea or Cardiff, would be a sensible move.
