Just wanted to point out that the only club that have officially bid for Yates (per The Sun) was Leicester with a 2.5m bid which was of course rejected.
They also said that Coventry, Luton, Bristol City, and Ipswich were interested, but haven't made bids.
There has been NO credible reporting from anyone regarding Coventry having made a recent bid.
Only thing I could find was this Tweet from an apparent Coventry City ITKer (who also knew that Simms was signing for Coventry a week before) claiming that Yates was coming their way so take that with a massive grain of salt.
