Cole has linked up with Scottish Premiership side Motherwell for a second stint at Fir Park. Motherwell confirmed the signing of Cole on Friday, with the striker putting pen to paper on a one-year deal to keep him at the club until the end of the season.

Upon the confirmation of the deal, Motherwell boss Stephen Robinson spoke to the club’s official website to welcome Cole back to the club. He said:

“Obviously we have worked with Devante before, so we know what we are getting from him. He gives us options all across the forward line and adds pace. He has proven he can score goals coming in from the wider positions and he will add real competition to the front line.”
