£40 is very tight and is very limiting if you want an AIO. The only cooler listed on pcpartpicker within that budget is the MasterLiquid Lite 120: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/TDdFf7/cooler-master-masterliquid-lite-120-667-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-mlw-d12m-a20pw-r1

That'd work fine but you'd probably be better off getting a cheaper cooler like the Gammaxx 400: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/hJFPxr/deepcool-cpu-cooler-gammaxx400

If you wanted lighting, you could get a Gammaxx GT or Hyper 212 RGB BE instead:

You can put your 240mm aio at the feont of the case.

You can mount a 240mm at the top and (I think) the front as well. I'd try the top for exhaust first. You can see an example here: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/r83bt6

Did you already have the cooler?

Why are you looking at that cooler in particular? It's not bad at the right price but there are often cheaper air coolers that are also quieter.

Where are you shopping / located? Budget?

I can spend around 40-50 pounds on the cooler

 

I was looking for an aio because it made the setup look the best

If that's the aesthetic you're after, the ML240L is a decent option.

Your not going to find an AIO for 40 Pounds. I think that is around $45 or so. Try to get yourself a big air cooler.
