When the question is put forward about rumoured interest in him, Steve Cooper doesn’t just close that line of discussion down, he pretty much slams the door shut.
There was speculation about the Nottingham Forest head coach earlier this week, with suggestions other teams are casting admiring glances his way. The Reds, it was said, could face a fight to keep hold of him in the summer.
Cooper signed a new contract at the City Ground in October, one which has him tied down until 2025. But he has made it clear that he didn’t need to put pen to paper to affirm his love for the club.
