Joe Cole's agent, David Giess, has poured cold water on a potential move to AC Milan, maintaining that he is still trying to work out a way in which his client can play for a Premier League club.
The midfielder has been linked with a number of moves having become a free agent after running his contract down at Chelsea, and there had been speculation that the Italian club were in line to offer him the chance to perform in Serie A.
However, the 28-year-old's representative has labelled that as "pure press speculation" while conceding that it is unlikely that the former West Ham United player would move away from England.
In the meantime, however, Giess has maintained that Cole's priority is to join a club that will compete in the Champions League next season.
"Football is the most important thing to Joe and continuing to play in the Champions League is high on his priorities," he told ESPNSoccernet.
