Chelsea's Nielsen attracting interest from home

Chelsea youngster Morten Nielsen is being courted by two clubs in his homeland, Denmark.

The 18-year old striker has struggled to find a place in the first team at Stamford Bridge, being left in the youth academy and reserves and his father feels it may be time to move on.

"There are two Danish teams that have shown an interest," Benny Nielsen told Sporten.

"He is an SAS League (Danish top-flight) standard now, so a move to Denmark would be interesting.

"Training starts again on 2nd January so we'll have a talk with Frank Arnesen (Chelsea's sporting director)," he added.

"Then we can go through the clubs that have shown an interest and look to find a solution."
