Steve Cotterill raves about Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford
Former Nottingham Forest and Birmingham City manager, Steve Cotterill, has showered praise on Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford in an interview with The Athletic.
The 26-year-old made his senior debut for Nottingham when Cotterill was the manager. The former Stoke City manager still follows Bamford closely and has made an observation about his game.
Bamford has always been a prolific goalscorer in the Championship, and Leeds paid £7 million to sign him from Boro last season. It was expected of him to become the lead striker at the club, but he struggled last season under Marcelo Bielsa, playing mostly as a second fiddle to Kemar Roofe.
