Stay, leave, loan: Armando Broja decision that could shape Todd Boehly's Chelsea future

Armando Broja, inevitably, looks likely to become the latest Cobham prospect to make his Chelsea exit. West Ham reportedly made a £30 million bid plus add-ons for the Albanian star and apparently are close to agreeing on personal terms. He is now set to return to England from Chelsea's pre-season tour in hopes to complete the transfer. Chelsea fans unsurprisingly share mixed feelings with this potential deal. The fact is that this would be the second Cobham striker the Blues sell in the space of one year, with Tammy Abraham being the first.

The question is whether Broja should stay, leave or go on loan. At the age of 20, he will be looking to find himself a starting role in a squad. He spent his loan move to Southampton making a name for himself in big games and becoming a problematic forward that defenders had a tough time playing against. With that being said, if he wants to leave, he has worked up a reputation strong enough for a complete exit from his childhood club.

According to TalkSport, Todd Boehly is reluctant on selling the 20-year-old, claiming that another season on loan could add £20 million to his value. Fans are also not pleased with such an exciting prospect leaving the club as Chelsea currently lack a traditional no. 9 in the squad. So what would be best for the player?
