Center back linked to Portsmouth is set to join Hull, while Blues target is moved down the Portman Road hierarchy by a £12 million deal with Ipswich.
Liam Cooper, a defender connected to Pompey, is heading to Hull, a rival team in the Championship.
The free agent was seen at Tigers’ MKM Stadium on Saturday during Millwall’s goalless draw with the home team.
This week, the 32-year-old center back is expected to return to his home team—more than ten years after Hull sold him after just 17 games.
Following his retirement from Elland Road after ten years of service, the veteran former Leeds United captain was linked to the Blues earlier this month. According to TEAMtalk, the Fratton Park team was reportedly exploring a move for the Scotland international.
John Mousinho, the Pompey manager, promptly blasted down that report, though. “There’s nothing in that,” he stated in an interview with The News. Although Liam is an excellent player with a strong Premier League background, he is not the one we have been considering at all.
