Tim Cahill's Everton future is again in doubt after the veteran was spotted in the stands at Chinese club Guizhou Renhe.

The 33-year-old, who has two years remaining on his Goodison Park contract but has recently been linked with a multi-million move to Saudi Arabia, watched a Cup tie between Renhe and Guangdong Sunray Cave.

And though officials from the club said Cahill was merely there as a spectator, coach Gao Hongbo told Soccerway: "The club actually had negotiations with Tim Cahill, but failed to reach an agreement. There were some technical problems, so Mr Cahill visits Guizhou this time. We really hope he could be interested in Guiyang and our club."

Cahill has been one of the stars of the David Moyes era at Everton, making 278 appearances and scoring 68 goals. But he struggled badly last term, scoring only three times, and Moyes has since signed Steven Naismith on a free from Rangers as well as eyeing Wigan's Hugo Rodallega.

Cash-strapped Everton are also keen on re-signing Steven Pienaar from Tottenham and bringing in free agent Danijel Pranjic , so could welcome getting Cahill off the wage bill - although selling Leighton Baines to Manchester United would also give Moyes a transfer fund.

The Australia international has already turned down a £10.3million three-year deal from an unnamed club in Saudi Arabia, thought to be Al Nassr.
