Ashley Cole hat irgendwo...(nein nicht auf der Arsenal-Website
) gesagt, dass er gerne in Zukunft mal die Captainbinde bei Arsenal tragen würde (bbc.co.uk). Auch Arsene Wenger ist zuversichtlich das er bleiben wird...
und überhaupt...wenn er wechseln will...was ich persönlich auch bezweifle... wird das einfach sehr sehr teuer...da er einen Vertrag bei Arsenal der noch 2 Jahre gültig ist...
aber wiegesagt..der Vertrag sollte zu stark verbesserten Konditionen verlängert bzw. erneuert werden...
EDIT: hier noch der Artikel
ASHLEY COLE insists he would like to stay at Arsenal u2014 and even one day take over as captain.
The England left-back had threatened to quit Highbury following his Chelsea tap-up scandal.
But boss Arsene Wenger has assured Cole the club will meet his £70,000-a- week pay demand u2014 putting him in the same wage bracket as Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira.
With a new deal on the horizon, Cole even hopes to follow Vieira as skipper.
He said: u201CYou never know whatu2019s going to happen in football u2014 but Iu2019d love to be captain.u201D
Cole would also love Arsenal to have Chelsea and Manchester Unitedu2019s money u2014 and reckons they must spend to be title contenders next term.
He said: u201CThe club needs to invest to avoid being left behind. Weu2019ve got a great young squad but weu2019d have got out of jail with more experience.
u201CIt is quite hard when you see Manchester United and Chelsea buying big- name players and chucking their money around.u201D
With Chelsea 11 points clear, Cole has written off the Premiership. But he says Arsenal still have much to play for u2014 starting with Saturdayu2019s FA Cup semi against Blackburn.
He said: u201CIt would be nice if we can get to the final and give something back to the fans.u201D
Key to Arsenalu2019s hopes is England defender Sol Campbell, who has been out for two months with Achilles and ankle trouble.
But he can prove his cup fitness in the reserves at Watford tonight
