Chelsea & Man Utd want to sign Arsenal defender?

Tony Pulis is a big fan of Cole, and made an offer of 6m GBP for the 27 year old.



Cole said: “I know a fee got accepted. The position West Ham were in means I’m one of the saleable assets and they had to accept.



“But it was down to me and I didn’t really want to move. It wasn’t best for me and my family to go up North.



“I’ll think about what’s on offer but I’m scoring goals and I’m happy where I am.”
