JOE COLE has told pals he wants to join Manchester United.
The England ace becomes a free agent next Wednesday when his Chelsea contract expires.
The midfielder, 28, had been expected to join Arsenal.
But now it seems Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is set to lose out to Old Trafford boss Alex Ferguson in the race for Cole’s signature.
Spurs boss Harry Redknapp and Real Madrid chief Jose Mourinho have both managed Cole in the past and are keen to do so again – but are also set to miss out.
Chelsea skipper John Terry admits he is stunned at the move.
Terry said: “It still amazes me how the club have come to the conclusion of letting Joe go.” (The Sun)
By all accounts the former Chelsea attacker will be offered a three year deal worth around £100k a week which will work out at costing £15.6m in wages alone but one can’t still help but feel that this is still a damn good deal for Manchester United to seal. The 28 year old England man still has a great deal to offer Sir Alex Ferguson and the England man could well offer more creativity to the Old Trafford attack as well as helpfully providing more firepower from the midfield.
Arsenal were apparently very close to securing Joe Cole but perhaps the Londoner felt that his career would be better served by moving a club who arguably have more of a chance of winning trophies and challenging his former Stamford Bridge outfit in domestic football.

Come on. Now this is a signing we needed and one we can afford! Joe Cole would’ve cost at least 20m in todays market and we get him for far less and that includes his wages!

anonymous - June 22nd, 2010 at 3:54 pm
Not sure how reliable this is:
Firstly the source comes from the sun
Secondly Capello has refused agents to talk with the players so we don’t know Joe Cole’s personal intention
Thirdly after all the publicity to do with England players talking to the press do we really think it likely that one has now come out and told the sun that Joe wants to go to Man U?
However, Joe Cole may in fact go to Man U but it will have nothing to do with this source

The deal could have been done before the world cup and who says his gent has to be in South Africa..he’s not suppost to be there he’s suppost to be doing hs job which is getting Cole the best deal and if we meet his wage demads well then… (I’m hopig you can draw the conclusion but just incase you was drinking our water it means we offered the best deal.) Also because he’s free we can afford him and his wages as we do not exceed our money set a side and so we may still be heavily in debt but can afford the wages in our wage structure.

I would have to concur with some of the more lucid thinkers here. We are talking about the Sun as a source! They make stuff up just to fill the pages, so not going to bite quite yet. It may well be that Joe Cole will join Utd, but if so that deal would have been done before he left for S.A. and it is certainly unlikely that his agent would spill the beans to the Sun. I mean would you? Let’s face it, it’s silly season. Guarantee J. Cole will also be linked with Man City and Madrid before the week is out.
loading...
anonymous - June 22nd, 2010 at 4:59 pm
the wives and girlfriends are in south africa, staying at Sun City.
i imagine some football agents will be present in south africa, but all will most certainly be in contact with their players throughout the tournament, as agents are not just active during time of protracted transfers, they run the daily lives of the football players (or their assistants will)!
so this transfer could have EASILY been sealed during the world cup, which some of you think is not the case.
this would be a real coup for manchester united, joe cole is a quality player.

Why does the agent have to be in SA to talk to his player, I think even footballers use mobile phones.

Arsenal or Tottenham are favourites to sign Joe Cole after Manchester United denied any interest in the midfielder. Photograph: Owen Humphreys/PA
To the manure pricks who taught they signed Joe Cole, Sun tells you a”friend” was told he would sign for an Ure and you believe him, and Wedknapp is running around panicky that someone has signed him, as if he would ever joing the spuds.
loading...
anonymous - June 22nd, 2010 at 11:28 pm
The feeling at Old Trafford is that a lot of the speculation surrounding United’s reported interest has been generated by people close to Cole in the hope of accelerating interest from other clubs.
Cole’s future now looks like a straight choice between Arsenal and Tottenham, the north London rivals having both initiated talks with the player’s representatives.
MORONS, This is paper talk and agent trying to get a better deal offered by Arsenal, Joe will play for Arsenal per the terms before he left and provided he has a good showing and comes back for a fitness test. The paper (Sun for that mater qoutes a “pal”)? While Gaurdian has researched and Man U are not interested as they did with Owen and will loose some money on that (wages). You retards need to calm down and let Joe come back from S.A. we will see then.

anonymous - June 22nd, 2010 at 11:32 pm
It’s BS for sure, we not signing him, we don’t have that kinda of money to pay his wage. The bloody Glazers have ruined us, we signing no one, unless he is 16yrs old, come from Brazil and has accepted the cheap budget airline ticket we gonna spot him to travel to the UK.
loading...
anonymous - June 23rd, 2010 at 12:00 am
it says 15 million in wages, over however many years. NOT a signing fee, read the quote, apartly his wife wants to stay in london according to the papers, but he wants to move to manchester united, have to wait and see. He would be guaranteed to fight for trophies at united, with our £100 million transfer kitty david gill (united chairman) said we had, we should be able to afford his wages and some! Also united may be in debt but their turnover is still one of the best in the world, better than madrid and chelsea. We pay our way out of the debt every year, the interest just means itl take so much longer to pay off. Hernandez looks quality also!!

loading...
anonymous - June 23rd, 2010 at 12:05 am
owen scored more goals than park in so many less appearances, at the end of the day for a free transfer, a hatrick in the champions league, and the winner against man city, not a bad free transfer. Wenger wont pay his wages, even henry wasnt on 6 figures a week. I agree there are better players out there, but for a free, cant go wrong.

anonymous - June 23rd, 2010 at 4:42 am
it is clearly an attempt for joe to again try to bump up his price…its that simple…he wants the wages arsene wenger does not spend or rather cause or the stadium (yada yada) can’t spend and hence to get arsenal to work overtime he needs this publicity….
