Former England defender and Chelsea Captain Gary Cahill has joined Crystal Palace on a two-year deal after leaving Chelsea.

The 33-year-old was a free agent after leaving Chelsea this summer.

He could make his Eagles debut in Saturday’s Premier League opener at home to Everton.

Cahill told the club’s official site: “I’m glad to be here. I think it’s a good opportunity for me to continue my career in the Premier League and to play in a good, exciting team.

“There are some very exciting, talented players here. I’m looking forward to the challenge.

“I’m hungry to prolong my career as long as I possibly can.

“I feel like I’m in great shape and whoever I play for, I’d like to think that I give it 110 percent and leave everything out there, so hopefully that will be good enough for the manager, my team-mates and also the fans.”
