Spurs set to sign Chelsea star Joe Cole

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has launched a £10million raid for Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole.
Redknapp is a big admirer of England star Cole (above) after giving him his debut at West Ham and would love to take him to White Hart Lane.
The Spurs boss has already made some discreet enquiries as to whether Chelsea will be prepared to sell the 27-year-old.
But Carlo Ancelotti does not want to lose Cole and the midfield star will be offered a new contract as he only has less than 12 months on his current deal.
And even if they did sell, Blues would want to see a lot more money.
But Redknapp believes he may be able to lure Cole with the guarantee of regular football in a World Cup year where he faces a fight for his place.
Ancelotti is also chasing AC Milan's Andrea Pirlo which has alerted Redknapp to Cole.
