Coventry goalkeeper Wilson signs contract extension

Ben Wilson has not been used as first choice since boss Frank Lampard was appointed

Coventry City goalkeeper Ben Wilson has signed a contract extension until the summer of 2027.

The 32-year-old has made 117 appearances since signing from Bradford City in 2019 and kept 45 clean sheets.

In 2023, he broke the club record for the most clean sheets in a single season with 22 in 46 games and also scored a goal to earn the Sky Blues a point in a game against Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.

"I've been here a number of years now and I was getting to the stage where I wasn't sure what was going to be happening next season so, to extend my contract, I'm absolutely thrilled," Wilson said.

"I can't wait to get going and I want to make more memories and push to the very top."

Wilson has only played six games this season, the most recent in October, with Oliver Dovin the regular first-choice under Frank Lampard and former boss Mark Robins.
