Sources: Coventry City fear 'anarchy' as Jack Rudoni transfer plan revealed

Newcastle and Leeds are tracking Coventry midfielder Rudoni, who has four goals in 11 games this season; Coventry fear losing him mid-season would cause 'anarchy'.

Newcastle United and Leeds United have shown interest in Coventry City midfielder Jack Rudoni, according to sources cited by Football Insider. The 25-year-old has made a strong impression since joining from Huddersfield Town in 2024, scoring four goals in 11 games across all competitions this season.

Coventry and manager Frank Lampard are determined to keep Rudoni, particularly given his importance to their Premier League survival bid. Sources told Football Insider that selling him in January would cause "anarchy" at the club, with Lampard unlikely to sanction a mid-season departure of what is arguably their best player.

Rudoni will have just one year remaining on his contract next summer, and Coventry are keen to extend his terms. The club is confident of retaining him long-term if they avoid relegation, though both Coventry and Lampard are aware that a drop to the Championship would almost certainly trigger his departure.
