George Boateng, has expressed his elation following his return to the club as a first team coach.
Boateng initially played for Coventry City in 1998. He has shared his enthusiasm on his social media page, stating, "I'm thrilled to announce my return to my first love in English football, Coventry City FC! From 1998 to 2024, it's an honor to come back and work alongside Mark Robins and the entire staff. I want to express my gratitude to Coventry City FC for this incredible opportunity."
Boateng, who previously served as the Individual Development Coach at Wolves, has joined Coventry alongside Rhys Carr. The duo will work under the guidance of Coventry Manager Mark Robins.
Having previously worked as Assistant Coach of the Black Stars from May 2022 to January 2023, Boateng brings valuable experience to his new role.
He was part of the coaching staff during the 2022 World Cup and the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
Born in Ghana but having played for the Netherlands at the international level, Boateng's appointment adds further diversity to Coventry City's coaching staff.
Boateng's arrival at Coventry City follows his dismissal as Ghana Assistant Coach in February after a disappointing Africa Cup of Nations campaign.
