Liverpool have signed Joe Cole on a four-year deal, subject to a medical following his release by Chelsea.
The 28-year-old England midfielder left Stamford Bridge in June after failing to agree a new contract with the Premier League champions.
He was linked to Arsenal and Tottenham but has opted for Liverpool, who failed to qualify for the Champions League.
Cole's arrival follows winger Yossi Benayoun's move from Anfield to Chelsea for an undisclosed fee in July.
Cole joined Chelsea from West Ham for £6.6 million in 2003 and scored 40 goals in 282 appearances, winning three Premier League titles and two FA Cups.
