Former Chelsea midfielder, Joe Cole, has advised Premier League (PL) clubs to secure the services of Lilies’ Jonathan David if they want to improve their goal scoring in the league.
Most of the leading PL clubs except a few are currently in the market for a top striker and Joe Cole believes the Lille forward is the solution to their problems.
Man City missed out on signing Harry Kane last summer, Aubameyang left Arsenal in the January transfer window to join Barcelona, Lukaku is not delivering for Chelsea , while United are also keen on bringing in a striker in the summer.

Joe Cole while speaking on BT Sport said Premier League clubs should attempt to sign Lilies’ striker, Jonathan David because he is a “good finisher”.
He went on to describe the forward as a real talent who is strong and has good touches. He also said despite the fact that his team is struggling this season, he stood out.
Cole said, “He [Jonathan David] plays the beautiful, raw way, he runs on shoulders, good finisher, he’s a target man, he holds it up. All eyes of Europe are looking at him.
“A lot of his teammates’ performances have dropped this year and his has actually stayed and gone up. This is what he is all about though, once he gets in behind he is clinical, his touch is good, strong.
“He looks like a player who has even more levels to go up. I am not surprised lots of Premier League clubs are looking at him. He scores off both feet, he is a real talent.”
