Joe Cole On The Verge Of United Move 31/05/2010
![]() Chelsea misfit Joe Cole is on the verge of signing for Manchester United, reports state. Sir Alex is looking for his first big summer signing, and a shock move for 28-year-old is on the cards. Cole has been rejected a contract with The Blues, asking too high a price – but The Reds may be just what he’s looking for… Cole has demanded £120,000 – however the Stamford Bridge side aren’t prepared to dish-out over £100k for the midfielder. The development leaves the door wide open for Cole, who will soon become a free agent, attracting attention from the likes of Arsenal, Man City, Tottenham, Liverpool, and of course – United. Talks haven’t got under-way with any club as yet, but an approach from Old Trafford is likely before or during the World Cup in South Africa – where Cole hopes he will be. Meanwhile, another rumoured target – Tottenham’s Luka Modric has closed the door on a possible exit, instead signing a six-year deal at White Hart Lane… Commentsjay Mon, 31 May 2010 7:47:34 pm dream on! jay Mon, 31 May 2010 7:54:47 pm He has already signed for Arsenal! Deal to be announced tomorrow. KEN b Mon, 31 May 2010 7:56:36 pm A perfect fit for us. Bit can’t help feeling he’s a Mon, 31 May 2010 8:03:29 pm Well jay if that’s true – then it marks the end of good old Cesc Fabregas… Magnesia Mon, 31 May 2010 8:06:56 pm I hope SAF decide to make him a Man Utd player. He’s a class act, cool, composed, deft touches, great finisher and most importantly fantastic temperament – all these are symbols of the BUSBY BABES. Mesh Mon, 31 May 2010 8:30:06 pm I can’t really see Cole joining united. Manchester united policy doesn’t go for signing players who are past the age of 27. Owen was an exception as it was a free deal. I’d rather love to see a young player coming on. Dave Mon, 31 May 2010 8:40:27 pm Cesc Fabregas has already told Arsenal he wants to leave this summer and he hopes its before the World Cup starts. Mon, 31 May 2010 8:48:06 pm RE: mesh.

Bange Tue, 01 Jun 2010 3:03:46 pm Joe Cole would be a great signing for us, cool and calm and most importantly he is English. He would slip onto the left side of midfield a treat and leave Nani to work down the right. Fergie, sign him up! lununcle Tue, 01 Jun 2010 3:18:36 pm it would be nice if he is coming here for free… Gonzo Tue, 01 Jun 2010 3:34:58 pm He will be great value on a free for any top club. If he stays in London fair enough, but Fergie has coveted Cole since he was 16. Redknapp used to talk about Fergie’s obsessive admiration of Cole when he was West Ham manager. Every time they’d meet, Fergie would say “How’s The Boy?”. Thought he was the best young british player since Gazza. Made loads of bids for him but Harry never went for it. Comments are closed. |
