Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole has pledged his commitment to the club by signing a four-year deal.

The England international will now become one of the Blues' highest earners after penning the new contract.

The former Arsenal man has begun this season in brilliant style and will now be looking to help the national team book a place in next year's World Cup with a friendly against Slovenia followed by a qualifier against Croatia in the next six days.

28-year old Cole now looks likely to finish his career at Stamford Bridge.
