LEICESTER CITY APPOINT STEVE COOPER AS NEW MANAGER.
Leicester City have appointed former Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper as their new manager, the newly-promoted Premier League club said on Thursday.
Cooper fills the vacuum left by Enzo Maresca, who left for the vacant post at Chelsea earlier this month.
Maresca, 44, had steered 2016 Premier League champions Leicester back to the top flight after just one season in the Championship.
Former Brighton and Chelsea manager Graham Potter, as well as West Brom’s Carlos Corberan, were also linked with the Leicester role but it was Cooper who got the job.
