Coventry City sign Danish midfielder from Norwegian club Sarpsborg 08
Coventry City have made their first signing of the January transfer window by bringing in Victor Torp.
The 24-year-old Danish central midfielder has signed for an undisclosed fee from Norwegian top-flight side Sarpsborg 08.
Subject to international clearance, he has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal until June 2028.
“He is a player who brings us creativity and athleticism,” said Sky Blues manager Mark Robins.
“He will need a period of adjustment but we are confident that he will adapt to the intensity and demands of training and the championship.”
The former Denmark Under-20 international began his career with FC Midtjylland in his native Denmark.
He joined Belgian side KV Kortrijk for the 2021–22 campaign on loan before moving to Sarpsborg, where he scored six times last season in 30 appearances.
After another faltering start to the season, last season’s beaten Championship play-off finalists Coventry are now unbeaten in eight league and cup games and have risen to eighth, three points shy of the top six, going into Saturday’s derby with leaders Leicester City.
