Coventry defender Liam Kitching has joined Sheffield United on a season-long loan.
The 26-year-old has made 107 appearances for the Sky Blues, including playing 38 times as Frank Lampard's side won the Championship last season.
Coventry have signed defenders Aurele Amenda, Ethan Pinnock and Stephen Mfuni this summer, leaving Kitching down the pecking order.
Kitching signed from Barnsley for £4.5m in 2023 and was an unused substitute in the Sky Blues' opening two Premier League games this campaign.
He played in the 4-2 Carabao Cup win at Plymouth in his only appearance of the season.
