Former Liverpool star made available for transfer after 'furious' training ground row with manager

Former Liverpool midfielder Jonjo Shelvey is set to leave Nottingham Forest after just six months at the club, having been made available for transfer following a furious row with manager Steve Cooper.

The 31-year-old, who left the Reds for Swansea City in a £5m deal in July 2013, joined Forest from Newcastle United in February following seven years at St. James’ Park. However, he made just eight appearances for Forest before falling out with his manager.

Having been left as an unused substitute against Manchester United in April, the England international was said to be angry after being told he would be starting on the bench for the second successive match for Forest’s trip to his former club, Liverpool.
