Mesure becomes the latest in a long list of Chelsea staff members leaving the club after a long period there. But it looks like a case of him wanting to go help his good friend at another club and perhaps start his own coaching career.

Cole will be looking at this as a perfect opportunity to kick on with his managerial career and step up the ladder, perhaps following in the footsteps of someone like Cesc Fabregas, who of course also played for Chelsea and is now enjoying a very successful time as Como manager.

As reported by the reliable Training Ground Guru, Ashley Cole has taken on his first senior managerial role after being named Head Coach of Italian Serie B side Cesena to the end of the season, with Jack Mesure leaving Chelsea to become his Assistant.

It will be a good move for both coaches as they look to get some solid experience in order to develop some more.
