Cahill has played six matches for Everton since returning from injury and scored a stunning overhead bicycle kick against Chelsea.

But he has told the club's TV channel his place in the Australia squad is in doubt.

"There's a couple of weeks off now and I have got a couple of knocks so I'll have to see if I am fit to play for Australia, which at the moment is doubtful," he said.

"I am just going to rest and then on Wednesday I will go into camp and see how I get on."
