Liverpool and Roma chase Cahill

Liverpool and Roma are reportedly targeting Chelsea’s Gary Cahill with the out of favour defender eyeing first team football in a bid to secure Euro 2016 selection.

Cahill has slipped down the pecking order under interim boss Guus Hiddink as John Terry and Kurt Zouma seem to have set up a healthy partnership. The news that New York Red Bulls centre-back Matt Miazga has completed a medical with the Blues could indicate that he is a replacement for England’s vice-captain leaving the door wide open for him.

In the past 24 hours Liverpool have emerged as shock front-runners but sources suggest that Chelsea are keen to avoid selling to Premier League rivals with a move to Roma being favoured by Roman Abramovich.
