COVENTRY City have agreed to sign promising young left-back Harvey Broad from non-league side Chatham Town.

Broad has agreed to sign his first professional contract with the Sky Blues, as the 18-year-old links up with City’s development side.

The left-back, who turns 19 in September, broke through into the Chatham first team last season, after making his debut before the turn of the year.

Broad made 17 appearances, winning the club’s young player of the season award for the 2023/24 campaign.

Chatham suffered defeat in the Isthmian League Premier Division play-off final last season after finishing second in the table

He also spent time on loan at Lordswood FC, where he initially found his first taste of first team football.




As part of the deal, Chatham will take on Coventry in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday, July 16 at Bauvill Stadium with kick-off at 7.45pm.
