Jose Mourinho wants Ashley Cole for Real Madrid adventure
Jose Mourinho has told Inter’s board this will be his last season at the San Siro and negotiations with Madrid are so advanced that transfer targets have already been discussed.
One of his premium targets is Chelsea’s Ashley Cole, who perfectly fits both Madrid’s need for a top-class left-back and Mourinho’s preference for taking players he knows and trusts to a new club.
Even if Inter were to suffer the setback of losing to Barcelona tonight in the Champions League semi-final, despite their 3-1 first-leg lead, it would not affect Madrid’s desire to land him.
Discussions have fallen just short of a signed agreement but Mourinho would now only reject Madrid if one of the Premier League’s blue-riband clubs, such as Liverpool or Manchester United, were to offer him a position this summer .
