Chelsea goalkeeper Asmir Begovic: 'Not playing bugs me'

Chelsea goalkeeper Asmir Begovic admits that it "bugs" him not to be playing regularly.

Chelsea goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has admitted that it "bugs" him that he does not play regularly at Stamford Bridge.

Widespread reports claimed that Bournemouth tried to strike a deal in the January transfer window, but it seemed to be dependent on the Blues finding a replacement.

The West London outfit were linked to Celtic stopper Craig Gordon, but they could not find a new back-up to Thibaut Courtois, therefore resulting in Begovic's stay.

"I think [not playing] bugs every professional," the 29-year-old told talkSPORT. "The thing that keeps me going is lifting silverware and being in a successful side.

"It bugs me but In terms of moving clubs it's not an option at the moment. I know my role in the team and the leadership I can bring. I am fully committed to the team until the end of the season."

Begovic joined Chelsea from Stoke City in 2015.
