Arsenal heap pressure on Chelsea over Cole
Arsenal are ready to increase the pressure on Chelsea over their interest in Ashley Cole.
The Gunners have until midnight to submit a list of 25 names to UEFA for next week's third qualifying round showdown at Dinamo Zagreb.
Should Arsene Wenger use Cole in the first leg it will leave him cup-tied for the Champions League.
The England left-back is desperate to move to Chelsea but the clubs are at loggerheads over the fee.
Arsenal want £25million while the Blues are dragging their heels after having a £15.5m bid rejected.
Gunners boss Wenger may now use the Champions League to get the deal his club wants.
A cup-tied Cole will be virtually useless to Blues chief Jose Mourinho.
