PSG, Monaco target loan deal for Chelsea keeper Cech

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech is a loan target for PSG and AS Monaco.

The Daily Mail says PSG and Monaco are prepared to take Cech on loan for a year, in a deal which will appeal to Chelsea if they can secure the right to recall him.

Cech is facing the prospect of a year on the sidelines after Jose Mourinho selected Thibaut Courtois for the opening game of the season at Burnley.

Chelsea are in a position where they must cut one foreign player from their Premier League squad and two from their Champions League squad before the transfer window closes on September 1.

Cech is an obvious candidate to leave, although Mourinho is concerned in case Courtois suffers any problems with fitness or form as he adjusts to the English game.
