Chelsea eyeing Fulham goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli

Chelsea are eyeing Fulham goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli.

The Daily Mail says Chelsea have enquired about Bettinelli in their search to provide competition for Thibaut Courtois.

Bettinelli features prominently on the list of candidates the Blues are considering to replace Asmir Begovic with this summer.

He played a key role for Slavisa Jokanovic side's run to the playoffs, where they lost to Reading.

Chelsea have tried to sign Bettinelli before, the shot-stopper turning down a move to Stamford Bridge in 2015 due to his fears of limited senior football behind Courtois and Begovic.
