The agent of Chelsea attacker Salomon Kalou says staying in England is an option.

Kalou is a confirmed target for Schalke and Liverpool as he comes off contract at Chelsea this month.

Roger Linse claims the 2012 Champions League winner could be persuaded to stay in the Premier League.

"He has been very happy at Chelsea," he told the Liverpool Echo.

"He is a player with ambition, and he has managed to satisfy a lot of those ambitions over the last few years.

"He never quite made it to be a guaranteed starter with Chelsea, but his statistics were always good, and he won lots of trophies there.

"In many ways it will be difficult to find a better place to be, but he is open-minded, and would be happy to continue in England if the right club comes in."
