Ashley Cole has admitted that he didn't think Mohamed Salah would reach the heights he has having played with the Egyptian at Chelsea in 2014.
Cole would depart for Roma at the end of Salah's first year at Stamford Bridge where the forward struggled to nail down a first-team place before being loaned out to Fiorentina in 2015.
Salah would then eventually link back up with Cole at Roma the year after before the Blues decided to cash in on the winger by selling him for what now seems a bargain
