Derby County have finalised a deal to bring former England international Ashley Cole to Pride Park.

The club announced his arrival on their website this evening, with the 38-year-old signing a deal with the East Midlands outfit until the end of the season.

Boss Frank Lampard knows Cole very well, with the pair teammates over the years for both Chelsea and England.

The former Arsenal man had been a free agent after leaving MLS side LA Galaxy at the end of last year and he will now join up to help the Rams as they look to secure a return to the Premier League.

Lampard had been on the lookout for a new left-back after an injury to Craig Forsyth and he sanctioned a loan move for Max Lowe.

Cole could make his debut for his new club this weekend as they take on Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup.

Here's how fans reacted to his arrival...
