Coventry City: Dominic Hyam and Liam O'Brien join Sky Blues on two-year contracts

Goalkeeper Liam O'Brien was released by Dagenham after their relegation from the Football League

Coventry City have agreed to sign Reading defender Dominic Hyam and Portsmouth goalkeeper Liam O'Brien.

Both players will begin two-year deals to play for the relegated club in League Two next season from 1 July.

O'Brien, 25, was not offered new terms at the end of his second Pompey spell.

Centre-back Hyam, 21, leaves Reading having not made a first-team appearance, but he does have League Two experience following a loan spell at Dagenham and Redbridge last season.

"Dominic is a strong and aggressive centre half, who comes from a very good academy set-up," Coventry boss Mark Robins told the Sky Blues' website.

"Liam is a quality goalkeeper, who we will be working hard with to maximise his potential. We are building a club, not just a team, for our short and long term aims."

O'Brien did not make a first-team appearance in his first spell at Portsmouth, going on loan to Eastbourne Borough.

He later played for Barnet and Dagenham, before returning to Pompey in August 2016 on a short-term deal.
