Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has played down injury fears over Armando Broja, but Everton will have to wait to try and sign the forward.
There were concerns that the 20-year-old - who has been linked with a move to Everton, Premier League rivals West Ham United and Napoli - who the west London outfit have just signed Kalidou Koulibaly from - could potentially face a lengthy spell on the sidelines after he was photographed being driven away from his club's US training camp with a crutch and wearing a protective boot but while Tuchel has revealed the Albanian international's issue is not as serious as it might have seemed, potential suitors might still have to wait to prise him away from Stamford Bridge, be it on a permanent deal or another loan.
Broja, who has been seeking reassurances over his Chelsea future, had showdown talks with the club before they crossed the Atlantic, and joined the party later than the bulk of the main group, flying over with new signing Raheem Sterling. It is understood that Tuchel wants to assess the youngster over Chelsea's friendly matches before making a final decision on whether he will be part of his plans this season.
