Crystal Palace are reportedly planning a January bid to take Roma full-back Ashley Cole on loan, although there remain hurdles in place.

Cole joined the Giallorossi on a free transfer in the summer but has been struggling for regular playing time, leading to speculation that he may leave the club as early as this winter.

Rumours are being furthered now by the Daily Mail, who report that Crystal Palace may attempt a bid.

The former England international spent a brief loan period at Selhurst Park in 2000 before returning to Arsenal.

Details of a potential offer, and the question of whether Roma would be persuaded, are still unconfirmed, but the Daily Mail point out that Cole’s weekly wages of £80,000 are twice the squad limit in place at Palace.
