Coventry City have re-signed midfielder Gael Bigirimana from Newcastle on a deal until the end of the season.

The Burundi-born 22-year-old made his senior debut for Coventry in August 2011 at the age of 17 and joined the Magpies a year later.

But he made just three league starts in four years with Newcastle and returned to the Sky Blues on loan last season.

Gael Bigirimana made 13 appearances during a loan spell with Coventry in 2015-16

"I'm sure he can rediscover the form that made him so popular in his first spell," said manager Tony Mowbray.
