Career
Dan Agyei came through the ranks at AFC Wimbledon, scoring 29 goals for the club's under-21 team in the 2014/15 season to draw the attention of a host of top clubs, reportedly including West Ham, Chelsea and Fulham.[3] Agyei eventually signed for Burnley, on a long-term contract to initially play for the club's development squad.[4]
After impressing for Burnley's development squad in the 2015/16 season and making his senior Burnley debut in a pre-season friendly against Bradford City, Agyei was made available for a loan move by manager Sean Dyche.[5] Coventry City beat off competition from several clubs in League One and the Championship to secure the loan signing of Agyei on a five-month loan deal.[6] Agyei was handed the number 9 shirt by Coventry City manager Tony Mowbray upon arrival at the Ricoh Arena.[7]
Agyei made his professional league debut against Bradford City on August 20, 2016, handing Coventry City the lead with his first goal in professional league football in a 3-1 defeat at Valley Parade.[8] He then scored his second goal of the season in a 2-0 home win against Rochdale.[9]
