Returning to Coventry City as a permanent member, defender Luis Binks has set his sights high by targeting a top two automatic promotion finish for the upcoming season.

The 22-year-old centre-back, who recently made his loan move from Bologna permanent, expressed his confidence in the team’s abilities during a candid conversation on the podcast 2 Brits 1 Yank. Reflecting on his journey with the Sky Blues, Binks shared his admiration for the club’s transformation under new ownership and emphasized his excitement to be a part of it.

During a detailed discussion on the well-known podcast 2 Brits 1 Yank, Binks engaged in a conversation with Maidstone United duo Soloman Wanjau-Smith and Sam Bone. They covered topics ranging from the intense emotions he feels from the Sky Blue Army to Manchester City’s remarkable FA Cup comebacks. The chat also delved into facing off against Zlatan Ibrahimovic, enduring a challenging match against Dries Mertens, and the overall excitement and unpredictability of the game.

Discussing the challenges of playing in the relentless Championship, Binks highlighted the league’s competitiveness and diversity in playing styles. He commended the absence of VAR in the league, attributing it to the free-flowing nature of the games and the unpredictability of results.

Binks also praised the unwavering support of Coventry fans, particularly noting the electric atmosphere at CBS Arena and the team’s anthem, ‘We’ll Live and Die in These Towns.’ He described the spine-tingling moments before kick-off when the fans belt out the anthem, showcasing their unwavering support throughout the entire match.

With his eyes set on a successful season ahead, Binks’s commitment and determination reflect the renewed sense of ambition within the Coventry City camp as they aim for promotion to the Premier League.

Despite the low expectations for fan attendance during a Coventry vs. Maidstone FA Cup match on a Wednesday evening, approximately 26,000 supporters came, showing their dedication.
