The Midlands outfit, who currently lie second in the Championship, have been short of fire-power in recent weeks, and have scored just nine goals in 12 games since the beginning of the year.

Cole, 35, has spent extended periods on the bench for Portsmouth this season, and has scored just nine goals since making a £500 000 move from Manchester City.

Cole is contracted to Portsmouth until the end of next season.
