Palace and Chelsea old boy Moses likes Cahill's post confirming his departure from The Eagles
Victor Moses liked a post by his former teammate Gary Cahill on Sunday, August 1, in which the central defender confirmed that his time at Crystal Palace has come to an end.

Moses was on the books of Chelsea for nine years, joining the current European champions on August 24, 2012, 221 days after Cahill's arrival at Stamford Bridge from Bolton Wanderers.

The former England international spent seven straight years at The Blues, while Moses enjoyed loan spells at Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham within that period of time.

The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winner has a special bond with Cahill's last club Crystal Palace, whom he joined at the age of 12 and rose through the ranks before making his professional debut.

Writing on Instagram, Cahill stated : "After much thought and deliberation, I can confirm that I have left Crystal Palace FC after an enjoyable two years.

"I have really enjoyed my time at the club and I want to extend my sincere thanks to everyone involved at the club, especially the fans and staff who welcomed me into their South London family.

"It’s been a privilege to play at Selhurst Park, especially in that first season where I got to experience the atmosphere that the Eagles fans create on a match day. Playing in front of the Holmesdale Road stand is a memory that I will cherish in particular.

"I would like to wish the club all the best for the future and wish them every success for the coming season".

As at the time of writing this report, Cahill's post has been liked by 58,350 Instagram users, including Crystal Palace academy product Moses.

In an eight-year association with Palace, Moses appeared in 58 Championship matches across three seasons, scoring eleven goals.
