GARY CAHILL will consider a U-turn on his Chelsea exit to play a part in their Premier League title challenge.
The ex-England defender, 32, revealed last month that he would ask for a January move if he continued to be left out of the first-team.

But Maurizio Sarri has since picked him in Europa League and EFL Cup games, which has led to Cahill looking at seeing out the season.
Chelsea are unbeaten in the Prem and Sarri is expected to give Cahill more chances to play as the club challenges for trophies on four fronts.
Top-flight clubs are aware of Cahill’s situation and he will have no shortage of interest in a player that went to the World Cup when the transfer window opens.
He supported Sheffield Wednesday as a kid and they have also been linked with him.

But Cahill could instead assess his options at the end of the season when his contract at Stamford Bridge runs out.
Cahill and David Luiz are the only players at the club from the 2012 Champions League winning team against Bayern Munich.
His position as a club favourite has been cemented with two Premier League titles since that magical night at the Allianz Arena.
He is now behind Antonio Rudiger and Luiz in Sarri’s pecking order but came off the bench against West Ham in a Prem game a month ago.
