Loan to Carlisle

Upon joining the club he explained that the reason for the loan deal was to get more game time for his development, saying “I’ve had a good taste of football with Villa but I want to be playing game to game and showing everybody what I can do. I want to prove myself and that’s why I think this is a good move for me.”. He made 16 appearances for Carlisle, scoring 3 goals, as they finished 11th in the league.
Coventry City
On 22 August 2019, O'Hare signed with EFL League One club Coventry City on a season-long loan. He made 40 appearances and scored 4 goals for Coventry before the season was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 9 June 2020 the League One season was officially ended and Coventry were crowned champions, securing promotion to the Championship. O'Hare returned to Aston Villa ahead of the resumption of the Premier League season. On 25 June 2020, O'Hare was released by Aston Villa.
Following his release from Villa, O'Hare signed permanently for Coventry on 15 July 2020 on a three-year deal. He scored his first Championship goal in Coventry's 3-2 victory over QPR, their first league win of the season.
