Former Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has expressed satisfaction with the performance of Nigerian midfielder Frank Onyeka following his debut appearance for Coventry City F.C..

According to reports by Sky Sports, Lampard described Onyeka’s first outing as “solid and encouraging,” noting that the Super Eagles star showed composure, tactical awareness, and energy in midfield.

British outlet BBC Sport also highlighted Lampard’s remarks, emphasizing that the Coventry boss believes Onyeka will bring much-needed balance and work rate to the squad as the season progresses.

Onyeka, who recently completed his move to the Championship side, is expected to play a key role in Lampard’s rebuilding project. Fans and analysts alike are watching closely to see how the Nigerian international adapts to his new environment.

With Lampard publicly backing him early, expectations are already building around Onyeka’s impact at Coventry.
