According to Fabrizio Romano , Chelsea are now fighting to keep hold of striker Armando Broja despite strong interest from West Ham United. Armando Broja spent last season on loan at Southampton, where he scored nine goals in 38 appearances across all competitions.
The 20- year-old striker has attracted strong interest from West Ham, who were said to be closing in on a €25 million deal (as per 90Min). Other clubs who have been linked with the player include Everton, Newcastle United, and former club Southampton.
Broja is currently injured but manager Thomas Tuchel is reportedly a big fan. The German manager recently claimed that he does not believe the striker will be leaving this summer: Tuchel said:
"I don’t expect him to leave.
"We are aware of interest and offers, which just tells us there is a lot of potential, and the owners and me will take this decision together in the end, also with the player.”
"Right now when he arrived, it’s clear he’s trying to impress and is just trying to become a Chelsea player as soon as possible. After his loan at Southampton, the situation was very clear for him to make the next step, to show his improvement and make an impression in pre-season.”
As a result, Chelsea are now fighting to keep the player but are also in contact with the Hammers as of now. The report mentions that despite Tuchel's comments, Broja may be on the verge of joining David Moyes' side.
