Forest Green midfielder Charlie Cooper has joined Newport County on a season-long loan deal.
The 21-year-old joined Rovers on a free transfer last summer, having spent the second half of the 16/17 season on loan at the club from Birmingham City.
He’s made a total of 55 appearances for Rovers so far and played a key part in the club’s promotion winning season in the National League.
FGR boss Mark Cooper said: “Charlie is a young lad, he’s still only 21 and we think this will be a really positive move for him and that he’ll be able to thrive at Rodney Parade.”
