Former Arsenal and Chelsea defender Ashley Cole has a very short stay with AS Roma after a phenomenal career in the BPL and with England. Now, however, he seems to have found a new home with the LA Galaxy where he should expect significantly more playing time and a chance for a reunion with some of his old friends (and foes).
The LA Galaxy posted on their official website that they had acquired the 35-year-old back for an undisclosed deal. Cole will join former Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard, Tottenham legend Robbie Keane, and international star Giovani dos Santos at the MLS outfit.

Cole won the Premier League title three times – twice with Arsenal and once with Chelsea – and was a starter for the undefeated Arsenal team that won it all in the 2003-04 season. He was named to the PFA Team of the Year four times.
On the international level, Cole was capped 107 times for England from 2001 to 2014.
