Liam Cooper Explains Decision to Join CSKA Sofia After Leaving Leeds United

Liam Cooper, the former Leeds United captain, has opened up about his surprise move to Bulgarian side CSKA Sofia. In an interview with the club’s website, Cooper revealed why he chose to leave England and embark on a new adventure in Eastern Europe.

Cooper’s departure from Leeds United marked the end of an era. The 33-year-old spent 10 years at the club, making 284 appearances and earning 19 Scotland caps. He was instrumental in Leeds’ promotion to the Premier League under Marcelo Bielsa and became a fan favorite.
