Cole, 29, has been strongly linked with a move to the Spanish giants in recent weeks following the much publicised problems in his personal life.

The Chelsea left-back is understood to be fed up with life in England and is keen to make the move to the Bernabeu to link up with former manager Jose Mourinho.

Real keeper, Casillas, also had this to say: “I have only briefly spoken to people at the club but I am confident that he can be a Real Madrid player next year. I think it will be the right move for him both professionally and personally.”

Personally, I would be more surprised if Cole was still a Chelsea player when the transfer window shuts at the beginning of September. Love him or hate him, you can’t deny that he is a world class left-back and in my opinion, he was one of the only England players who came out of the World Cup with his footballing reputation intact.

Your comments are always very welcome.

Both Chelsea and Real Madrid will be involved in the Champions League next season and here is a great place to buy yourself some Champions League tickets today. And with Chelsea involved in the Community Shield this season I am sure a lot of you will want to get yourself Community Shield tickets.

We all know many of the English players are not the most clean cut characters and with the English press seemingly doing their best to ruin England’s chances before the World Cup even begins it could be that England go to World Cup 2010 without any of their Premiership stars.

This is of course an overreaction but the two players most likely to miss out seem to be John Terry and Ashley Cole. The Chelsea pair have hit the headlines recently for all the wrong reasons and Fabio Capello has already proved he is willing to take drastic action by replacing John Terry as England captain. If any of the England stars were dropped for off the pitch conduct it would surely affect the England World Cup Odds massively.

England’s star player has to be Wayne Rooney and we all know he has had some well publicised off the pitch antics. Let’s hope he keeps up his good behaviour because if he doesn’t go to the World Cup, then England might as well not bother either.

About time is what most people are saying, including myself.

Ashley is possibly one of the best left-back’s in the world, however off the field is a different story. I think it’s fair to say he is possibly one of the biggest idiots in the world.

Football Corner would like you to sum up the Chelsea and England defender in three words. Whenever we do this feature we always seem to get a great response and I hope that happens again.
