Coventry City defender Callum Perry, aged 20, will spend the season on loan at Cambridge United to test himself in League One after a productive spell with Rochdale that helped them win promotion to League Two. He recently signed a new long-term contract with Coventry, underscoring the club’s faith in his potential. Perry made 25 appearances for Rochdale and scored a decisive Wembley play-off penalty as they secured promotion, highlighting his value as a developing defender. Cambridge, newly promoted to League One, see the move as a chance to strengthen their back line and give Perry regular first-team opportunities. Perry and Cambridge boss Neil Harris expressed enthusiasm about the loan, with Perry eager to improve and contribute to Cambridge’s aims.
