Leicester City's Steve Cooper spotted at Gresford Athletic
24th June

WREXHAM

A NEWLY-appointed Premier League manager was spotted at a football match in the Wrexham area over the weekend.

Steve Cooper has just recently been appointed as boss of newly-promoted club Leicester City.

The Foxes' previous manager Enzo Maresca took over as Chelsea boss earlier this month, despite having taken Leicester up from the Championship as champions.

Cooper, 44, was previously with Swansea City and Nottingham Forest.

During his playing days, he was a defender who turned out for the likes of Bangor City, Rhyl and TNS and was also on the books of Wrexham AFC.

He began his coaching career at Wrexham's academy before moving to Liverpool and later the England youth set-up, where he went on to win the FIFA U-17 World Cup with the U17's side back in 2017.

Over the weekend, he returned to Wrexham to watch some football unfold.


Fans were surprised to find Cooper at Gresford Athletic Reserves' match against Caerwys Reserves on Saturday (June 22).

FAW referee Lewys Thomson-Williams shared a picture of him with the Premier League manager to X (formerly Twitter).

He said: "What a lovely guy, absolute pleasure meeting him today and to receive refereeing compliments too."

Gresford Athletic commented: "Steve Cooper is a Gresford Athletic Reserves fan, pass it on…

"Great to see the Leicester City Football Club Manager at the game against CPD Caerwys FC Reserves today!"

Even his dogs trying not to be photographed with him.
