Roma forward Edin Dzeko opens up on his potential move to Chelsea in the January window and hints that he is uncertain about his future at the Serie A club.

Edin Dzeko has admitted that he did not move to Chelsea in January because he had been advised that it was not the right decision.

It was widely reported that the Blues attempted to sign the Roma striker at the start of the year in their search for another target man, before turning their attention to former Arsenal forward Olivier Giroud.

The interest of Chelsea in the Bosnian international has now been confirmed, as Dzeko spoke on his potential exit from Roma in January.

"Chelsea is a big challenge and I know what kind of a club that is," Dzeko told Face TV.

"I've been at Man City and I wasn't ready to move to Chelsea. Nobody I spoke to wanted me to move to Chelsea so I decided to stay. It has been tough period, a lot of stories and information, true and false, were written, everything went through my head, I wasn't clear or certain of anything at the time.

"Now I will play two games for Bosnia and then we'll see [where will I play]. I have another two years of contract, so Roma has to be asked about it too."

Dzeko signed for Roma from Manchester City for ‎£9.6m in 2016.
