Nottingham Forest head coach Steve Cooper is not a name that appears on a reported shortlist to replace Graham Potter as the next Brighton and Hove Albion boss.
After guiding the Reds to promotion last season, Cooper had been linked with the vacancy opened up after Potter decided to swap the Seagulls for Stamford Bridge and Chelsea earlier this month. The Welshman had been as short as second-favourite to become the next Brighton boss at stages last week but has since drifted out to fourth favourite.
Lens head coach Franck Haise, who has the side sitting third in the French Ligue 1, is now the odd-on favourite as of Wednesday, with Mainz manager Bo Svensson and Bodø/Glimt boss Kjetil Knutsen all ahead of Cooper according to the bookies.
