ON-LOAN Birmingham City midfielder Charlie Cooper is set to play a part in Forest Green's FA Trophy clash against Truro on Saturday.

The 19-year-old central midfielder has signed from the Championship outfit on a 28-day deal.

Cooper had a previous loan at the New Lawn in January under former boss Ady Pennock before his father Mark became manager this season.

He is a part of the development squad at Birmingham, and has already had one loan spell in the National League this season, having recently made five appearances when on loan at York City.

Cooper is currently a second-year professional at St Andrews, where he has been since the age of 11.
