City boss Peter Reid has admitted that he had made an enquiry as to the Trinidad and Tobago strikers availability a month ago.
"I believe the manager is interested in Dwight and this is precisely why we appointed Peter Reid as manager, because of his contacts in the game and his ability to bring in top players to Coventry City," Sky Blues chairman Mike McGinnity told The Coventry Telegraph.
"That is what we want to see here and we will do all we can to help him."
