The footie icon has a close relationship with his mum and dad, with his father being an integral part of his footballing journey.

Speaking about Jermaine's impact on his career, Cole told The Player's Tribune: "He used to sit me down on the bag of balls on the sidelines, wrapped in one of his rain jackets. I would just take it all in – the crunching tackles, the shouting, the arguing.

"Dad doesn’t play anymore since he done his knee, and I don’t really remember any specific games, but he’ll tell you how good he was! He fixes dental equipment as his real job, but to listen to him you’d think he’d had a 20-year career in the Premier League!"

He has a close tie with his heritage, revealing how his father would help train outside despite his hatred of cold weather. Cole stated: "My dad’s family is from St Kitts and Nevis in the Caribbean. He hates going out in the cold. But he’d do it for me anyway. That’s why I got the St Kitts flag on my boots, as a little tribute to him and his family."

Speaking about moving to Chelsea, Cole said: "I’ve definitely improved as a player coming here. I just felt [in the summer] like I was ready to play football week in, week out and that’s what I’m doing here at Chelsea.

"The manager has definitely helped me, he’s a top manager and a top person. He speaks to you about anything, like family issues. I think if he knows what's going on off the pitch, it can affect how he is with you on the pitch. He's really great at that."
