Chelsea stunner: They want Arsenal's Cole - March 15, 2006
Chelsea are making an amazing new bid for Arsenal fullback Ashley Cole.
The Sun says Blues manager Jose Mourinho has decided Cole, 25, is the only player in the world who can solve his left-back problem. He has Roman Abramovich's backing to outbid Real Madrid.
But Mourinho will have to be at his persuasive best because the Gunners star has never forgiven Chelsea for last year's tap-up row.
Blues are ready to offer Cole a mega £90,000-a-week deal to convince the England defender to forgive them for last season's furor.
