CELTIC HAVE COMPLETED the signing of unattached striker Carlton Cole on a two-year deal.
The 32-year-old left West Ham in May and had been training with the Scottish champions in recent weeks in a bid to earn a deal.
The former England international has now agreed terms until the end of the 2016-17 season, having reportedly rejected interest from MLS clubs.
The forward will be presented to the media on Thursday and he could make his debut for the in front of the Bhoys faithful at home to Dundee United on Sunday.
Cole, who boasts seven England caps but has never started for the Three Lions, has scored 85 goals in more than 380 senior club appearances in spells at Chelsea, Wolves, Charlton, Aston Villa and the Hammers.
Was never going to happen he’s a really top player for Madrid and would be a step down joining Arsenal in terms of winning leagues and champions league.. Also Arsenal are always to scared to spend the money needed for a player like this never going to happen..
If he was to choose arsenal or United I know what one he’d pick..
This got nothing to do with United lol
Spot on Irish.
Must saying Irish… #pedro

He joined Chelsea not Arsenal haha
I know but he should of signed for United ;)
U think he should of? Fair enough I see why bigger club.. Shame United didn’t meet the release clause they may regret it.. Still tho Arsenal still Danny Welback?
Or Welbeck did United get £17million for him?
Welbeck is a great addition to any squad, does a lot of dirty work for the team and is unselfish. He’s not a striker though. He plays better on the left
Well that’s that done. I was never one to believe media hype but I will admit they got me with this one.. F**** you media. But if arsenal don’t get a striker we can forget about challenging for the league
Thank feck that’s over!! Gutted that it’s not happening though! Get the finger out Wenger
