Cole's contract expires at the end of the current campaign, and is unlikely to earn a new deal with the Blues, as he has struggled to cement his place in the starting lineup so far this season.



With Arsenal Legend Thierry Henry, currently at MLS club New York Red Bulls revealing his eagerness to have Cole playing with him next season, Mourinho hinted that the 33-year-old could make way from the Blues.

Ashley Cole has made 333 appearances for the Blues since his move from Arsenal in 2006.
