​Bournemouth midfielder Cook: Brooks was flying before suspension

Bournemouth midfielder Lewis Cook says that teammate David Brooks was looking impressive in training before the COVID-19 outbreak.

The Welshman was set to get back into the Cherries team after going through two ankle operations in the past year.

He has not played competitively yet this season.

But Cook says the Warrington-born Premier League star was raring to go.

He told the Daily Echo: "I think everyone knows he's a top, top player. We have missed him this year.

"He's a great lad to have around the place and he's a good laugh as well.

"He was looking sharp as ever when we were last in, so it's really good to have him in and around it."
