WAYNE Rooney has admitted it is ‘not an easy moment’ for Plymouth Argyle goalkeeper Michael Cooper because of the continuing transfer speculation about the 24-year-old.
Cooper was only on the bench for the crushing 4-0 defeat by Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsboroughon Sunday as the Pilgrims’ 2024/25 Championship campaign got off to a dreadful start, with Conor Hazard between the posts instead. Rooney stated his decision to select the Northern Ireland international had been based ‘on what I have seen in preseason’, but also reiterated he wanted Cooper to stay at Argyle because ‘he’s a fantastic goalkeeper’.
Sheffield United have been strongly linked with Cooper, who is into the final year of his contract, but according to a report in one national newspaper on Sunday they have been ‘scared off’ by Argyle’s £6 million of valuation of the talented shot-stopper.
