Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech is likely to leave the Stamford Bridge side with reports linking him with Arsenal and Liverpool but not in the winter transfer window.
DailyMail and Sun Sport reported earlier today that Chelsea veteran has planned to leave the club but will stay till the end of the season.
Czech Republic international goalkeeper is likely to be eyeing a Premier League medal before his departure from Chelsea.
The Blues who are the favourties to win the title this season are also hoping to keep Cech atleast for this season.
His agent Viktor Kolar told Czech newspaper Sport: “It’s unlikely Petr will leave Chelsea in the January transfer window. The club and coach want to keep him to help win the title.”
But Kolar also revealed that he could stay in England as several options are open for him: “I think Arsenal should have made an offer to him. I think Petr would be considering it.”
Cech’s agent has told that his Client will stay this season but will not close the doors for Arsenal or Liverpool in summer. Liverpool are already suffering with the goalkeeper issues this season. Also, Kolar added Real Madrid are eyeing Cech.
Since the arrival of Thibaut Courtois from Atletico Madrid, Cech has been struggling this season. He has made only two Premier League appearances so far.
The 38-year-old who played as a first choice keeper for ten seasons started three consecutive games in the absense of Courtois who was out with groin injury. But yesterday against Stoke, the Belgian returned and Cech was benched again
Despite of his unhappiness on the bench he is still eyeing to stay in the coming window which opens next week.
