What Armando Broja has done amid Chelsea pre-season tour and West Ham transfer links

Armando Broja is set to return home to England from Chelsea's pre-season tour of the United States of America with West Ham hoping to finalise a loan deal.

The Albanian international has been out in America with Thomas Tuchel's side as the Blues continue their pre-season preparations, with Broja joining up with the squad after his loan spell with Southampton last season, where he scored nine times in all competitions, including six goals in the Premier League.

But there has been plenty of speculation over his future, with West Ham, Everton and Newcastle United among the clubs linked with a move to sign him this summer, along with reported interest from Italian side Napoli. It is understood that Broja's representatives have held talks with Chelsea over their plans for him, with the 20-year-old under contract with the Blues until 2026 having signed a new long-term deal last summer, before joining Saints on loan.
