Nottingham Forest head coach Steve Cooper is currently "not an option" to fill the managerial vacancy on Brighton & Hove Albion..
The Seagulls are looking for a new manager after Graham Potter left to take charge of Chelsea earlier this week, with Cooper named as a potential replacement.
Cooper has received a lost of justified praise following the way he turned Forest around last season, taking the team from the foot of the Championship table to the Premier League in just eight months.
