Luis Binks has shared the reasons behind his decision to commit to Coventry City for the long haul.

The 22-year-old defender has made a significant move by transforming his season-long loan into a four-year contract with the Sky Blues, making the switch from Italian Serie A side Bologna for an undisclosed sum.

Having expressed his desire to part ways with Italy multiple times last season, Binks believed joining Coventry City would provide the ideal platform for his personal growth—a vision that has now materialized. “I had mentioned my wish to return ahead of the new season several times last year, and I am thrilled to be back,” the center-back remarked.

Excited about the prospect of collaborating with the manager and Adi, Binks sees immense potential in the partnership. “Working with the gaffer and Adi can only lead to positive outcomes for me, and I am looking forward to the journey ahead,” he added.

In his recent discussions with Mark Robins over the summer, Binks was reassured about his role at the Football Club and the potential for growth. “Chatting with the gaffer about a month ago shed light on how he envisions my future here, and that clarity made it clear to me that I wanted to join and continue evolving. I have always aspired to team up with him, Adi, and the rest of the squad. Establishing strong off-pitch relationships is crucial for my happiness and performance on the field,” he explained.

Reflecting on his standout moments from the previous season, particularly the memorable game at Wembley against Manchester United, Binks expressed his eagerness to relive such experiences. “Patience was key for me last season, and despite the challenges, there were moments like the match against Manchester United that truly stood out. I am excited to kickstart the new season on July 1 and build on these positive memories,” he shared.

Looking ahead to the upcoming season, Binks conveyed his excitement about donning the Coventry City shirt once again. Despite being on loan last season, he felt deeply connected to the club and its values, striving to embody the spirit of a permanent Coventry City player. “I am thrilled to be back, and I am proud to be part of this family. The club’s ethos resonates with me, and I genuinely feel like a true member of this community,” he concluded.
