Chelsea launch second bid for Celtic’s Craig Gordon

Chelsea, the Premier League leaders, are not expected to sign any new player in the remaining 48 hours of the January transfer window. However, the Blues could be involved in one or two outgoing transfers.

One of the players who could leave before Tuesday night is goalkeeper Asmir Begovic. The Bosnian international is Conte’s second choice keeper at the club behind Thibaut Courtois. He is used only in cup games, and can expect to start only when the Belgian is not around through injury or suspension.

The 29-year-old is a reliable goalkeeper with loads of Premier League experience.
