Former Arsenal and Chelsea defender Ashley Cole is nearing a winter move to LA Galaxy, according to Goal USA.
The 35-year-old hasn’t played a single minute of football at AS Roma this season and it is clear that his spell at Stadio Olimpico is drawing to a close.
MLS side LA Galaxy have expressed a desire to secure his services and are currently negotiating a deal with the former England star.
Galaxy produced a major coup by recruiting Steven Gerrard and Giovani dos Santos last summer, and they look set to continue the trend of signing high-profile footballers.
LA Galaxy failed to impress last season, crashing out in the Play-in Round finals after a 3-2 defeat to Seattle Sounders and they will be looking to improve next term.
The MLS side have allowed both Omar Gonzalez and Juninho to leave last week in an attempt to free-up funds to sign Ashley Cole.
