Ex-Chelsea star Ashley Cole set to wed Italian model 13 years after failed marriage to Cheryl
Ashley Cole is giving marriage a second chance by tying the knot with Italian model Sharon Canu after his first marriage to Cheryl Tweedy didn't quite work out as planned.
Chelsea is reportedly interested in signing the forward this summer and has enquired about his availability.
According to David Ornstein on Twitter via the Athletic, “Chelsea have made contact with Ajax to express interest in signing Mohammed Kudus.
“No offer yet but dialogue has taken place. 22yo attacking midfielder among options Chelsea considering + agreement close on personal terms”
Last season, the 22-year-old made 42 appearances for Ajax in all competitions, scoring 18 goals and dishing out seven assists.
Since making his Dutch football debut, Kudus has occupied as many as seven positions, ranging from a deep-lying No. 6 to a full-fledged centre-forward, with most of his time spent on the right flank rushing the full-back.
