Help with jersey choice

I like to buy a game day jersey for the teams I like to follow in the EPL. As this will be the first time I watch Coventry in the EPL, I'm unfamiliar with the players. Can someone suggest a player I can wear proudly for the 26/27 season?

Apologies, my inner grammar Nazi sometimes can’t be restrained.

I’d like to note that Jake may be leaving the club, sadly - as the OP said he’d get the name with the most upvotes.

Yeah I don't care if this guy's shirt is wrong.

Van Ewijk, the first name I’ve had on my Cov shirt for years. Although partly because I bumped into him in town and he was a thoroughly nice chap 😂

How long you happy to wait?

I’m thinking I might get our first goalscorer this season (will raise some eyebrows if it’s an own goal lol)

Eccles. Cov kid through and through. He might not get a lot of minutes but he’s all Cov.

(Assuming we don’t sell him before 11pm. Please Frank, don’t do it)

I would go with Hamer, Rudoni, Mason-Clark or Sakamoto

Wait until this transfer window closes-- there might be some players heading out the door on loan or permanent transfer

And then consider which position you relate to the most-- I usually play as a defensive midfielder, but used to be an 8 and sometimes a 10, so I usually don't buy striker or winger shirts.
Over the last few seasons I have picked up kits for these players who are still around;
Van Ewijk (RB, my only non midfielder)
Grimes.
Torp.
Rudoni.
Hamer.

Hell, I even bought one with LAMPARD on the back last year.
