Former Chelsea defender Marcel Desailly believes Joe Cole would be better off joining Manchester United than Arsenal.
The 28-year-old could leave Chelsea on a free transfer this summer as his contract is set to expire.
Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham and West Ham are among the clubs interested in the midfielder.
Desailly told FourFourTwo.com: "A few years ago I would have thought he would go to Arsenal, but now that he is 28 he needs to go to a team that – with him or without him – will succeed, in order to put pressure on him to deliver performances.
"At Arsenal there are younger players and you need to talk to them, surround them and have a positive attitude around them.
"In Joe’s current situation he needs to push on. He doesn’t need to help the others, he needs a club to help him discover his best levels once again. Therefore, I would say Manchester United."
