Bournemouth to return with £10m bid for Chelsea keeper Begovic

Asmir Begovic is expected to be the subject of a £10million summer bid from AFC Bournemouth.

The Cherries pursued the Chelsea goalkeeper in January but were ultimately unsuccessful in luring him from Stamford Bridge to the south coast.

The Daily Mirror is reporting that Eddie Howe is determined to land a new keeper at the end of the season and will again go for Begovic.

Bournemouth currently have Artur Boruc as number one and Adam Federici as his back-up but want a more reliable first-choice gloveman next season, provided they remain in the Premier League.

Begovic has spoken of leaving Chelsea in order to gain regular first-team football which he is currently not afforded in West London behind Thibaut Courtois.
