The 33-year-old began his professional career with Southend United and was part of the side that secured promotion from League Two in 2015. His performances that season also earned him the club's Player of the Year award and a place in the PFA League Two Team of the Year.

Bentley made 160 appearances for Southend before moving to Championship side Brentford in 2016. After spending three seasons with the club, he joined Bristol City, where he was named their Player of the Year for the 2020-21 campaign.

In January 2023, Bentley moved to Wolves and later made his Premier League debut against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

The goalkeeper is now looking forward to starting a new chapter with Coventry City and believes the club is heading in a positive direction.

"Coventry City is a fantastic club, and I'm really happy to get the deal over the line," Bentley said after completing his move.

"It feels like a place that's developing and, off the back of a fantastic season last year, there's a really good feel around the place. It's really positive, and there's an obvious excitement to go into a new season with the aim of being as successful as possible. I'll bring a lot of experience; I'm a senior player with good leadership qualities and someone who has really high standards.
