“I’m absolutely buzzing to be here. It seems like the perfect move for me and the next step in my career,” Kesler-Hayden told his new club’s website.
“Words can’t describe how happy I am to be at this club and how excited I am to play in front of the supporters. I want to show you what I can do, how I can play, entertain you and hopefully get this club back where it needs to be.
“I’ve spoken with the gaffer (Frank Lampard). He was a big part of why I signed. I believe in the project, and he showed me some videos and analysis of how I can fit into the team and for me that made it seem like the perfect place for me to come.”
Head coach Lampard added: “I’m delighted to welcome Kaine to the football club and I’m very excited to work with him. Having met Kaine I was really impressed with his ambition and desire to play for Coventry City.
“His qualities will fit in with the way we want to play, he is a young player and his defensive and attacking attributes will help to strengthen the squad.”
