Liverpool signs England internatinal Joe Cole

LONDON, July 19 (Xinhua) -- Liverpool signed England international Joe Cole on a four-year deal, confirmed the Premier League club on Monday.

The England midfielder has agreed personal terms with the Reds and will undergo a medical in the next 48 hours.

Cole, 28, became a free agent after being released by Premier League champions Chelsea upon the expiration of his contract at the end of June.

The England midfielder arrived at Chelsea in the summer of 2003, a 6.6 million pounds signing from West Ham United funded shortly after Roman Abramovich's takeover of the club. He played 282 times for Chelsea, 93 as a substitute.

Earlier this month, Chelsea signed Israel midfielder Yossi Benayoun from Liverpool on a three-year contract.
