West Ham United midfielder Joe Cole is keen on a move to Brighton.

Cole comes off contract at the end of this season.

The Sunday Mirror says he is intrigued by the prospect of working under Brighton boss and former Barcelona coach Oscar Garcia.

Cole has not played for the Hammers since the Capital One Cup semi-final defeat by Manchester City in January and has endured a rocky relationship with boss Sam Allardyce.
