COVENTRY City have signed French winger Loum Tchaouna from Burnley for an undisclosed fee.
The 22-year-old has signed a five-year deal with the Sky Blues and arrives for a reported £20million.
He scored two goals in 29 appearances for Burnley last season as the Clarets suffered relegation from the Premier League.
Chad-born Tchaouna is a France under-21 international and has also played in Serie A and Ligue 1.
Tchaouna said: “I’m so excited to start this new season in the Premier League, I’m feeling good and ready for the challenge.
“I was at Burnley last season in the Premier League, which was incredible.
“I’m going to bring my energy, determination and leadership to the team.
“I’ve played in Ligue 1, Serie A and now I’m playing in the Premier League, the best league in the world, so I have a lot of experience for my young age.
“I’m so excited to play at the Coventry Building Society Arena and I can’t wait for the new season.”
Tchaouna moved to France at a young age and has represented his country from under-16 to under-21 level.
He came through the academy at Rennes and made 10 appearances for the club in Ligue 1.
The winger spent time on loan at Dijon in Ligue 2 in 2022/23 as the club suffered relegation at the end of the campaign.
Tchaouna joined Salternitana in Serie A for the 2023/24 season and scored four goals in 33 games but could not stop the Italian side from finishing bottom of the table.
He joined Lazio ahead of the 2024/25 campaign who he helped reach the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals.
And Tchaouna moved to Burnley in 2025/26 where he scored three goals in 32 appearances in all competitions.
