Joe Cole Seeking A Move To Tottenham In The Summer

Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole is keen to reunite with Harry Redknapp and join Champions League bound Tottenham Hotspur in the summer.

Cole’s current deal with the Blues expires after the season and with contract negotiations at a standstill the England international would like to join his former manager at Spurs next season.

Tottenham clinched fourth place with a 1-0 win over Manchester City on Wednesday, but Cole was already interested in a move to White Hart Lane, according to The Sun.

Manchester City and Liverpool have also shown interest in the 28-year-old but Cole would join Spurs if they can match the £100,000-a-week salary demands the Englishman has made.

Redknapp managed Cole at West Ham United but if Spurs are steadfast in their refusal to offer the midfielder more than £60,000-a-week they could miss out of the chance to sign him.

Spurs are reportedly interested in City winger Craig Bellamy and Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar in an attempt to bolster their squad for Champions League football next season.
