my sister lives in Milano and I talked to her husband yesterday and I asked him about the Cahill rumour and he says its an english media thing.
the only mention of it in the italian press was saying ‘british papers report that Inter is interested in Cahill’.
his brother then said to me “We have enough mediocre centrebacks… ive seen Cahill play this year and its honestly pathetic”.
I think its more of a case of an agent tweaking the right sources to get a buzz going around his client. its done all the time.
dont forget that the EPL pays an extra premium for the few remaining players in EPL which are english but taht holds little value outside.
and being on the national team has very little significance, all it takes is for a player to have 3 good games (Wellbeck, Sturridge, Carroll) and they jump right into the starting lineup.
Cahill will stay in Britain because his perceived value is higher (and his visibility is minimal outside it).
