Ashley Cole Linked with Premier League Return, Manchester United Interested
Ashley Cole’s stint in Serie A with AS Roma may be coming to a premature end. The former Chelsea and England left-back is reportedly on the radar of Manchester United, who are looking to bolster their options in defense.
According to a report by the Daily Express, United boss Louis van Gaal is exploring the possibility of bringing in the experienced defender to compete with Luke Shaw, who, despite his potential, remains relatively young and injury-prone.
Having joined Roma just a few months ago, Cole has struggled to establish himself in the Italian capital, and a return to the Premier League could offer him a chance to revive his career. At 33, his wealth of experience could prove valuable to United’s back line as they push to return to the top of English football.
Should the move materialize, it would mark a swift turnaround for Cole’s Italian adventure and a potential final chapter in the Premier League for the seasoned full-back.
