Steve Cooper 'looking over his shoulder' as Leicester City decision deadline claim emerges
Ruud van Nilstelrooy’s departure from Manchester United has left Leicester City boss Steve Cooper “looking over his shoulder”, it has been claimed.
Cooper has led City to 10 points from their opening 11 league games of the season. Ahead of their return to action from the international break, the Foxes sit three points above the relegation zone in 15th place.
However, they suffered their heaviest defeat to the Premier League campaign so far immediately before the hiatus. There were loud boos from the away end after the final whistle of the team’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford and chants during the game of “Cooper, sort it out”.

Van Nilstelrooy was in charge of the hosts for that game, in his final match as interim manager. He has since left United, following the arrival of new boss Ruben Amorim.
According to The Sun, Cooper was picked for the City job ahead of the Dutchman and Graham Potter. But with both Van Nistelrooy and Potter out of work and the Foxes without a win in three league games, the Welshman “may be looking over his shoulder” as “managerial options come on the horizon”.
Former Chelsea chief Potter is said to be “itching for a return” to management, having missed out on the United and England jobs. It is claimed he “would be open” to a Premier League post, as long as “he had time” to make an impact this season.
The Sun add Cooper has “until the end of the year to impress” before a decision about his future is made. City host Chelsea and former manager Enzo Maresca at the King Power Stadium on Saturday, November 23 (12:30pm).
