Should Chelsea sell defender to Barca?

With Barcelona linked with a surprise move for Chelsea star Ashley Cole, it may seem that the time may be right for Roman Abramovich to cash in on his controversial left back and reinvest the profit in his team.

Cole's time at Stamford Bridge has been extremely successful, but with the former Arsenal player turning 31 just before Christmas, and out of contract in 2013, the financial benefits of a move should not be lost on the Chelsea board.
