Former Chelsea and Arsenal defender Ashley Cole has been inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame in recognition of his glittering career in the English top-flight.
The left-back won three league titles during 15 seasons and is widely considered to be the best player to play the position in Premier League history.
Cole was part of the historic Gunners team that went the entirety of the 2004-05 campaign unbeaten, his second league crown, before winning a further title in west London with the Blues in 2009-10.
He joins fellow Arsenal Invincibles Tony Adams, Dennis Bergkamp, Sol Campbell, Patrick Vieira and Thierry Henry in the Hall of Fame. As well as ex-Chelsea stars Petr Cech, Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard.
'I’m honoured to join the Premier League Hall of Fame.' Cole said. 'It’s humbling and fulfilling to be rewarded at the end of your career.
