Gary Cahill has hinted that he might be ready to leave Bolton during the January transfer window.
The England international was heavily linked with a move away from Bolton during the summer, with both Arsenal and Tottenham reportedly keen on the 25-year-old.
A move failed to materialise but Cahill admits the lure of European football is a major career ambition.
"As a professional footballer in general you want to strive and be the best you can and try to get to the highest level you can," said Cahill.
"Playing European football would be fantastic but as it is at the minute I’m not doing that so all I can do is put my performances in for Bolton Wanderers."
Bolton lost 5-0 at home to Manchester United on Saturday and have now lost their last three league matches in a row.
Owen Coyle's men are next in action when they host Norwich at the Reebok Stadium on Saturday, September 17.
