Begovic linked with Chelsea exit

Asmir Begovic could be set to quit Chelsea at the end of the season, according to the Metro.

The Bosnia and Herzegovina international was brought in by the Premier League champions in the summer as a replacement for Petr Cech, who moved to Arsenal.

He has played twenty times so far this season, but is very much second choice to Thibaut Courtois, who missed a chunk of this campaign through injury to give the former Stoke City man his opportunity.

Prior to his move to Stamford Bridge, Begovic spent five-and-a-half years at the Britannia Stadium where he racked up one hundred and seventy-two appearances, even scoring a goal in a 1-1 draw with Southampton in November 2013.

The twenty-eight year old was an unused substitute as the Blues were held to a goalless draw by Watford on Wednesday evening to leave them sixteen points off the Champions League qualification places.
