After spending several years as a key figure at Elland Road, Cooper left the club in the summer of 2023 following their relegation to the Championship. However, sources suggest the 32-year-old is open to rejoining Leeds, despite offers from other clubs.
Cooper, who played over 200 games for Leeds and was instrumental in their promotion to the Premier League, is said to be disappointed by his current situation at Hull City, where he joined after Leeds’ relegation. While his tenure at Hull has been largely successful, with the defender offering leadership and experience at the back, Cooper reportedly feels that a return to Leeds would allow him to finish his career at the club where he made his name.
Leeds, who are currently battling for promotion back to the Premier League, are understood to be considering the possibility of bringing Cooper back. His leadership and experience could provide valuable depth in their defense during the second half of the season. A January move, while unexpected, could see a fairytale return for the popular figure at Elland
Road.
