Gary Cahill has been offered the chance to remain in the Premier League with Burnley among the clubs keen to sign the defender.
The centre-back played his final game for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday before his seven-year stay comes to an end this summer.

Gary Cahill will leave Chelsea in the summer
Cahill came on in the final minute of the 3-0 win against Watford, replacing David Luiz, in what was only his second league appearance of the season and eighth overall, having barely figured under Maurizio Sarri and was given a raucous reception from the crowd.
But that hasn’t put off Burnley, who are one of the many clubs considering a move for Cahill, according to the Daily Mail.
Having been shunned by the Italian, the 33-year-old has used his time out of the side to maintain his fitness and would certainly add experience and class to Sean Dyche’s side.
The Burnley manager is no stranger to English veterans, having signed former Liverpool and Tottenham forward Peter Crouch in January, with the club looking to extend his deal by another year, even though he’s 38.

Manchester United are planning to appoint Mike Phelan as the club's new Technical Director, with Michael Carrick set to take up assistant manager duties. The Red Devils are in the middle of a major crisis on the pitch, which reached its lowest point in a Premier League clash against Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday.
Adrian used to be more fun in the past. Now he is trying way too hard. Like when he suggested Man United's match should be postponed until their players are fit. I don't know if he is told by his bosses to try to be even more controversial but nobody believes City should do anything.
