EXCLUSIVE: Cole to leave Chelsea at end of season after rejecting contract extension
Ashley Cole is ready to walk out on Chelsea at the end of the season after failing to agree terms on a new contract.
Cole is adamant he will not sign the one-year extension on offer and is preparing to speak with foreign clubs, including Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, in January.
The England defender, back in Roy Hodgson’s team for the World Cup qualifier against Poland on Tuesday night, is a victim of Chelsea’s new policy for players over the age of 30.
