Chelsea have told Loic Remy that he will be staying put at Stamford Bridge this winter.

The French striker is reportedly open to move away from the reigning Premier League champions as he seeks regular game time elsewhere.

The likes of Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Crystal Palace are all showing interest in 29-year-old Remy but according to The Sun, Chelsea are not about to ket their second-choice striker depart.

Remy has made just one Premier League start this season but with Radamel Falcao currently on the injury list and badly out of form, Guus Hiddink sees the former Marseille, QPR and Newcastle man as his fall-back option for Diego Costa who is back amongst the goals with three in his past two outings.
