Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is only willing to sell goalkeeper Asmir Begovic to Bournemouth if he can find a replacement, according to The Telegraph.

What's the latest?

Bregovic has struggled for game time at Chelsea, featuring just four times between the sticks, and those outings were in the FA Cup and EFL Cup.

The Bosnian has not made a single appearance in the Premier League this season due to Thibaut Courtois continuing as first choice.

Bournemouth swooped in with a £10m bid, but the Blues have knocked back their offer, reports The Telegraph.

The publication also states that Conte wants to make sure that a replacement is agreed before Begovic leaves, but with just seven days left in the window, it could be tricky to get a deal over the line.

Eduardo is currently the third-choice keeper, but Conte reportedly does not want to risk not having an experienced shot-stopper as backup in the event that Courtois gets injured.

If the club fail to land a replacement, Bournemouth may have to wait until the summer to get their man.

Who could Chelsea move for?

In some cases it is difficult to bring in a second-choice keeper, mainly because most footballers want to grab the number one spot.

With Courtois at the helm, though, most targets will have to settle for a regular spot on the bench.

According to The Telegraph, Chelsea were interested in AC Milan's Diego Lopez last summer, but they could struggle to sign him this month as he is currently first choice on a season-long loan at Espanyol.

Tim Krul, who is on loan at Ajax from Newcastle United, is also an option, reports the Guardian.

The 28-year-old Dutchman has plenty of Premier League experience, which would be vital if he is thrown into the fold at short notice.

However, he might be looking for more first-team action given that he has not yet made a single competitive appearance on loan.
