Coventry City have signed defender Bobby Thomas from promoted Premier League side Burnley for an undisclosed fee.

The 22-year-old, who made his Clarets debut in September 2020, becomes Coventry's sixth summer signing.

Thomas has signed a four-year contract.

"He is a talented young defender, who is highly rated and had impressive loan spells at both Bristol Rovers and Barnsley last season," said Sky Blues boss Mark Robins.

"He has good defensive attributes and is also comfortable with the ball at his feet.

"We're very pleased that Bobby has chosen to join Coventry City to continue his development and his arrival further boosts our defensive options.
