Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole wants to join his former boss Harry Redknapp at Tottenham, according to The Sun.
Cole has been unable to agree terms with Chelsea with his contract expiring this summer. Although the 28 year-old has made it clear that he would like to stay at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea chief Roman Abramovich is looking to curb spending on exorbitant wages and is resisting Cole's demands.
Although Liverpool have also been linked with the England midfielder who will be available on a Bosman free, Cole apparently favours staying in London and would relish the opportunity to link up with his former West Ham boss Harry Redknapp at Tottenham. Redknapp helped nurture Cole as he came through the ranks at Upton Park.
Especially with Tottenham having secured Champions League football next season, Cole is keen to move to White Hart Lane according to The Sun. However, he will likely ask Spurs to agree to wage demands of around the £100,000-a-week mark, way beyond their previous salary limits.
