Unwanted Liverpool ace keen on making it work at Anfield
A year is a long time in football, ask former England international Joe Cole. While the rest of his former teammates get ready for the European Championships next month, Cole is leaving Lille after an excellent season long loan spell that has helped him regain both fitness and confidence.
The 30-year old midfielder was a cult hero at West Ham United, and had many eventful years in the Blue of Chelsea before signing for Liverpool a couple of seasons ago on a free transfer. His Liverpool career though never really took off. He was sent off on debut against Arsenal, and in an effort to reduce the wage bill around the club and shift focus towards signing young talent, Kenny Dalglish banished Cole to France for a year.
With Kenny having been sacked though, Cole returns to Merseyside full of hope. Speaking to the Daily Mail, Joe said, “There is still a part of me that would really love to make it work there and I don’t want to have a bad spell at Anfield on my CV. But it is out of my hands now…We have got to speak to Liverpool and see what happens there.”
