West Ham United loan Lewis Page to Coventry City

West Ham loan Lewis Page to Coventry

West Ham United defender Lewis Page has joined Coventry City on a five-month loan deal.

The 20-year-old full-back made his senior debut for the Hammers during their Europa League qualifying campaign last season before spending a month on loan at Cambridge United in January of this year.

Page will now spend the next five months at the Ricoh Arena before returning to the Olympic Stadium on January 12, 2017.

"Lewis is a very technical young footballer, who has already benefited from a successful loan spell away from his parent club," Coventry boss Tony Mowbray told the club's official website.

"We have bought him in to create competition in the left-back area, with Chris Stokes likely to be out with injury for longer than expected.

"Lewis is fast and very attack-minded, which will fit in well with the system we are trying to play here. I'm looking forward to working with him during his time at the club."

Page is eligible to make his debut for the Sky Blues in tonight's EFL Cup match against Portsmouth.
