Chris Coleman's plans to trim the Coventry City squad so that he can bring in new players appear to have hit snags.

Speaking to the CT, the City manager has revealed that there has been no interest in any of the players that he would be willing to let go.

"We have had one or two phone calls but no one has come in with anything definite, rather just testing the water," said Coleman.

"I would imagine there will be one or two more leaving because I hope there will be one or two more arriving. I don't want a squad of 30-odd players with 10 or 12 players never getting a look in because it is a waste of time.

"Even though they were signed by the last manager, everyone has got different tastes and they are better off moving on for their career, so it suits them and us.I want a squad of 23 or 24 but with good quality."
