Graham Potter giving Armando Broja Chelsea opportunity to achieve Didier Drogba dream

There was lots of speculation surrounding the future of Armando Broja during the summer. Coming off the back of an impressive loan spell at Southampton last season, the likes of Everton and Newcastle United were reportedly eyeing up a move for the Albania international.

football.london understands that Broja was looked at closely by Thomas Tuchel during pre-season, with Chelsea without a recognised number nine until they signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on deadline day. Broja put pen to paper on a new deal last month, which will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2028.

It appears both Chelsea and Broja have the right decision, with the 21-year-old looking bright when he's featured for the Blues this season, scoring his first goal in the 3-0 win over Wolves on Saturday. Despite the arrival of Aubameyang last month, Broja looks as though he could be set for increased opportunities under Graham Potter.
