Coventry boss Micky Adams has sealed the £1m signing of central defender Elliott Ward from West Ham.
The 21-year-old has put pen to paper on a four-year deal and follows David McNamee, Wayne Andrews, Don Hutchison and Mikkel Bischoff to the Ricoh Arena.
"In Elliott we have a young, talented and confident defender who I'm sure will bring a real presence to our back line," said Adams.
"He is just the sort of player we are looking for to help the club progress."
Ward, a youth academy graduate, made 18 appearances for the Hammers.
