Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has revealed he will allow Asmir Begovic to leave the club if he can find a suitable replacement, but offered no comment on links with Celtic goalkeeper Craig Gordon.
The Blues are considering an offer from Bournemouth for 29-year-old Begovic, who is back-up to first choice Thibaut Courtois.
It has been widely reported Conte is eyeing up a deal for Celtic and Scotland No.1 Gordon as his replacement.
But while the boss confirmed Begovic will start Saturday's FA Cup fourth-round tie at home to Brentford, he declined to talk about any potential targets.
