Chelsea, 10:35, July 21, 2010 ,
Chelsea have insisted Ashley Cole is not for sale as rumours over a move to Real Madrid rumble on.
Former Blues boss Jose Mourinho wants to take Cole to Madrid, while the player himself is said to be keen on a move abroad following the break up of his marriage.
However, Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck claims the England international is not available and will be in the Blues side next season.
"Ashley Cole is not for sale," said Buck in The Guardian. "That's the bottom line on that. There's no doubt that he's going to be a Chelsea player this season.
"Ashley is a superb player. He is a delight to deal with around the football club, he gets on very well with everyone, he trains very well and he is really a model athlete."
