Report: Ashley Cole to remain at Roma despite Champions League snub

Ashley Cole is to stay at Roma despite being left out of their Champions League squad, according to reports.

Ashley Cole has decided to stay put at Roma despite having been left out of their Champions League squad, according to reports.

The 34-year-old joined the Serie A side from Chelsea last July but struggled to secure a permanent place in the Giallorossi's starting XI, playing just 16 times for them in his debut season.

According to The Mirror, a source close to Cole said: "He's not going to be cancelling his contract to go back to play for a lower-league club. He'll stay where he is and then consider his options."

Cole was reportedly the subject of a deadline-day bid from Newcastle United.
