Armando Broja is a player in demand, with Jesse Marsch’s Leeds United, Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United and David Moyes’s West Ham United among the clubs linked with the Chelsea striker.
Leeds and West Ham linked with Armando Broja
90min reported on July 5 that Leeds, Everton, Newcastle, West Ham and Southampton all want to sign Broja from Premier League rivals Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
The striker spent last season on loan at the Saints from the Blues and did relatively well.
The Albania international scored six goals in 21 Premier League starts for Southampton and was described as “a really, really exciting talent” by former Manchester United defender and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville on Sky Sports Premier League in February 2022.
Chelsea striker prefers Hammers move
The London Evening Standard are now claiming that Broja prefers a move to West Ham, with the report adding that Everton and Newcastle also interested in the 20-year-old.
West Ham are reportedly in talks with Chelsea over a deal for Broja.
The Hammers do need to sign a striker, as they cannot rely on Michail Antonio to perform week in and week out for an entire season.
Broja is also very young, so there is room for him to grow and develop further in the coming years.
