Ashley Cole, whose future at Highbury was in doubt after the club took him to a Premier League inquiry for meeting Chelsea over a possible move, has signed a one-year extension to his Arsenal contract.

"I am now looking forward to another successful season. We are all determined to regain the Premiership and title and I can't wait for the season to start now," said the 24-year-old, who had two years left on his previous contract.

Cole was fined 100,000 pounds by the Premier League after an inquiry heard evidence that he met with Blues chief executive Peter Kenyon, boss Jose Mourinho and agents Pini Zahavi and Barnett on January 27 without Arsenal knowing.

An independent panel is set to hear the defender's appeal against his punishment in August.
