Ashley Cole set for summer exit
Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole has revealed that he is unlikely that he will remain at the club beyond the summer.
The former England international, who has been at Stamford Bridge since his switch from Arsenal in 2006, is set to be out of contract next month, and the Blues have shown no signs of extending his stay at the club.
It is understood that manager Jose Mourinho is looking into the future, with Cesar Azpilicueta preferred ahead of Cole for much of the recently concluded Premier League season.
The 33-year-old has now hinted that he has several offers for his services to consider, and confessed that his career with the West London club looks all but over.
"I am weighing up my options for playing next season with my agent and sadly it does not look like chelsea will be one of them," He tweeted.
Cole has made 340 appearances for the Blues in all competitions until now.
