Coventry City fans are still reeling from the surprise signings of former England and Chelsea star Frank Lampard and goalkeeper Carl Rushworth. The duo played a crucial role in the team's promotion to the Premier League, with Lampard guiding the Sky Blues to the top flight 25 years after they were relegated in 2001. Rushworth, who was with the team on a season-long loan, kept 17 clean sheets this season and has returned to his home club of Brighton and Hove Albion. Fans have been calling for Coventry to sign him on a permanent deal, which they believe will happen in the summer. One fan, 10-year-old Leo, got Rushworth to sign a contract placard he made at home, which he plans to frame and hang on his bedroom wall. Another fan, Margaret Murphy, got Lampard's signature on her plaster cast at the end of-season awards dinner. She had the cast removed on Thursday and said she would treasure it forever. The signings have brought a buzz to the team's fans, who are excited to see what the future holds for Coventry City.
