Asmir Begovic set to stay at Chelsea after Blues fail to strike deal for Celtic keeper Craig Gordon
Chelsea keeper Asmir Begovic won't be moving as the trail has gone cold after Bournemouth made a £10m offer.Blues boss Antonio Conte did not want to lose Begovic who he rates highly and has also praised his attitude on and off the pitch.
Conte was keen to keep the squad together and on track for the title.
But Chelsea would have allowed him to go if they could have found a replacement to back up for first-choice Thibaut Courtois.
However, Celtic keeper Craig Gordon is set to stay, sign a new three and a half year deal and that has effectively ended Begovic's chances of moving.
Begovic is happy at Chelsea but just wants to play regularly so a move could be resurrected in the summer.
Chelsea are still in the market for a defender but the clock is ticking...
