Former Nottingham Forest midfielder Andre Ayew has conveyed his appreciation and support for his former coach, Steve Cooper, who recently faced dismissal from Nottingham Forest due to poor performances in the English Premier League. The team is set to be led by Nuno Espirito Santo.

Ayew, who played under Cooper at Swansea City in 2019 and during the final six months of the previous season, expressed his sentiments on Instagram, paying tribute to the coach who played a significant role in his career.

On Instagram, Ayew shared a photo of Cooper and captioned it, “The King of forest and the King of Swansea. Always with you boss..no matter the matter you are the BOSS.”

This heartfelt message reflects Ayew’s deep respect and admiration for Cooper, emphasizing the strong bond formed during their shared journey in football.

Cooper took charge of Nottingham Forest in September 2021, successfully steering the team from the bottom of the Championship to playoff success. Despite Forest’s recent struggles in the Premier League, Ayew’s tribute underscores the lasting impact Cooper has had on the players he coached, including the Ghana captain.
