Chelsea defender Gary Cahill has revealed he will hold talks with Gareth Southgate for clarification over his international future.
The London Evening Standard reports that Cahill will speak to the England boss after struggling to make a mark on the World Cup in Russia.
The Chelsea defender has failed to feature for England thus far but is being tipped to play against Belgium in the World Cup third-place match.
It is a good conversation for me to have with the manager in the coming month or so. Any time I get an opportunity to play for England, I want to do that. I can finish my England career knowing that I have played every possible game I can play in the times I have been selected.
I have never pulled out with any half injury or looked to put my club before my country. If I’m selected [to play against Belgium], I will go out there and give everything I’ve got.
Cahill is due to turn 33 at the end of the year and now sees his place in the squad under threat.
There were some concerns over whether or not Cahill would make the World Cup squad.
The 32-year-old fell out of favour at Chelsea in the second half of the season, but an impressive end to the season saw him earn a place in Southgate’s squad.
However, Cahill has not been helped by the emergence of Harry Maguire, who alongside John Stones and Kyle Walker, has impressed in a back three.
