Fresh start: Joe Cole could reignite his career in the French top division

'This is a good club, the family spirit, and the team play attractive football,' he told the club's website. 'I'm about to live an interesting experience here, with an ambitious team. I feel I have taken the right direction.

'The squad is young and I'm here to help my team, give them my experience, in order to win new trophies.

'I will discover a different style, which can be rewarding, and I am very excited to start this adventure.

'It has not worked well for me with Liverpool. I have not had the playing time needed. I need to play regularly to express myself fully and be at my best so I moved on to concentrate on this new challenge.'
