Roberto Carlos: Arsenal's Cole good for Real Madrid

Real Madrid star Roberto Carlos believes his club will move for Arsenal left-back Ashley Cole to replace him.
 
Carlos, 32, told The People: "I have heard lots of rumours about my future and Ashley Cole."

"The club has to look at other players because every position needs cover and Cole is a very good player, who would be a good replacement for me one day."

Carlos is happy at Real Madrid but knows that the expectation levels at the Bernabeu can lead to players feeling uncertain about their futures.

He added: "I love Real Madrid and would love to retire from football as a player at this club."

"I have a contract and I am happy working with the coach."

"But, as we saw with Luis Figo moving to Italy in the summer, you never know what is around the corner."
