Sordell also featured 14 times for England U21s earlier in his career and represented Great Britain at the 2012 Olympics.

Speaking to the club's websiteSky Blues manager Tony Mowbray said: "Marvin is a player that the club followed closely last year and was a prime target for us in the summer window.

"He performed extremely well for Colchester United in the first half of last season and will give us another valuable option in attack.
