July 16 : Coventry City have signed Switzerland defender Aurele Amenda from Eintracht Frankfurt for an undisclosed fee, the newly promoted Premier League club said on Thursday.
The 22-year-old centre back arrives after two seasons with the Bundesliga side, where he made 42 appearances in all competitions. He has seven caps for Switzerland.
"I want to win, I want to help the team and help the club succeed," Amenda said in a statement.
"I'm really looking forward to playing in this beautiful stadium, to meet the fans, to celebrate with them, to win with them. I want to score here as well so I can't wait to get started."
Coventry begin their Premier League campaign away to defending champions Arsenal on August 21.
