BLUES STOPPER: Asmir Begovic
CHELSEA boss Antonio Conte has revealed the Blues are considering an offer for goalkeeper Asmir Begovic.
The Bosnian stopper is currently second choice at Stamford Bridge and Cherries have been heavily linked with a move in the past 24 hours.
Conte said: "Asmir is an important player for me, on and off the pitch. He knows this.
"There is this offer. The club and I are evaluating this offer."
Reports earlier today suggested Chelsea had rejected a £10m bid from Cherries and were holding out for £12m.
Begovic has scarcely featured for the Blues since he joined in an £8m deal from Stoke in the summer of 2015.
He has made only four appearances this season – all of them in cup competitions.
