AC
Milan is weighing up moves for out-of-favour Chelsea duo Ashley Cole
and Mikel Obi as head coach Clarence Seedorf looks to bolster his ailing
squad in the summer.
Cole’s current contract at Stamford
Bridge expires at the end of the season and his long-term future is
uncertain after falling behind Cesar Azpilicueta in Jose Mourinho’s
affections.
The Portuguese boss is eager to keep the
33-year-old but Blues owner Roman Abramovich has yet to sanction a new
deal, prompting Cole to explore other options.
After watching his struggling Milan side
record an underwhelming victory over Catania on Sunday, Seedorf spoke
of his desire to strengthen his squad in the fullback positions, reports
Goal.
“I’d prefer the likes of Cafu and Serginho on the flanks, but we don’t have them!” he told reporters.
“(Daniele) Bonera has brought great
balance to the side, (Kevin) Constant is a midfielder, (Urby) Emanuelson
has played as a fullback a few times in his career, but we don’t really
have a left back.”
Mikel is also a target, but any move for
the Nigerian this summer depends on whether Milan decides to sign
Valencia loanee Adil Rami and QPR midfielder Adel Taarabt on permanent
deals.
