Danny Philliskirk joins Sky Blues until end of the season

Coventry City have signed free agent Danny Philliskirk on a contract until the end of the season.



The 22-year-old, who was released by Sheffield United in January, had been on trial with the Sky Blues.

The former Chelsea youth team captain only played five times for the Blades after joining them permanently in 2011.

"This fits into our policy of trying to develop younger players who can step through to the first team," Coventry boss Mark Robins told the club website.

"We will assess the situation at the end of the season, while giving Danny the opportunity to earn himself a longer-term contract."
