Chelsea fans hail club’s latest decision on starlet

A sizeable chunk of Chelsea supporters on social media were very pleased to hear about the recent news regarding Armando Broja.

Sky Sports reported that the Blues are preparing to open talks with Broja over a new contract.

Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel is debating adding the 19-year-old into his squad next season.

Chelsea fans took the update in their stride and very much looked forward to potentially seeing the young attacker at Stamford Bridge soon.

Broja has just completed a very prosperous campaign on loan with Vitesse Arnhem.

The 19-year old scored 11 goals in 36 appearances during his debut season on loan at Vitesse Arnhem, playing a key role in their fourth-place finish in the Eredivisie.

The teenager will return to London for pre-season, where Tuchel can get a good look at the Albanian international.

His potential inclusion into the first team has arisen because of the Blues options up front.

Tammy Abraham and Olivier Giroud are set to leave in the summer, whilst movements to sign a new no.9 have stalled somewhat.

Romelu Lukaku now looks off the table, whilst the Erling Haaland pursuit has been stifled.

It would be a big ask to throw Broja straight in at the deep end, but sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures.
