The former England international was the driving force behind the Sky Blues return to the otp flight, and he's spent over £40 million so far to bring in Frank Onyeka permanently, alongside deals for Loum Tchaouna and Aurele Amenda.
However, as the start of the campaign approaches - with Coventry kicking off the new season away at defending champions Arsenal on August 22nd - Lampard wants his number one goalkeeper confirmed.
Carl Rushworth played all 46 Championship games for Coventry as they sealed the title last season and Lampard is pushing to sign him on a permanent transfer from Brighton.
All parties are happy for Rushworth to return to Coventry, but Brighton will demand a £22.5m fee, with Rushworth's transfer value rocketing over the last 12 months.
If the England under-21 international does arrive for that fee, it will set a new club record.
