Armando Broja is expected to make a permanent move away from Chelsea in the summer, with both club and player happy to agree an exit.
The 22-year-old is currently on loan at Fulham, making the short trip across west London at the start of February but things have not gone well for him since.
The Albania international made the switch to search out more game time but that has not materialised and has not started a single Premier League game for the Cottagers.
The striker has been given seven substitute appearances in the top flight and has not scored in any of them, in what has been something of a disastrous move for him.
Broja’s contract at Stamford Bridge runs until 2028, but transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that they will look to move him on this summer.
Despite his poor spell at Fulham, there is not going to be a shortage of interest in Broja, with teams in England and across Europe reportedly keen on a move for him.
It has been a tough time for Broja through injury and form over the last two seasons, making just two league starts for Chelsea over the last campaign and six in the first half of this season before leaving for Fulham.
The striker had earned plenty of admirers after a loan spell at Southampton in 2021/22, but he has scored just two Premier League goals since then.
Chelsea were open to selling Broja permanently in January but wanted at least £40m for him and there were no takers at the time.
The Blues will likely have to accept significantly less than that for him in the summer if they want to get him off the books, with his reputation not enhanced on his current loan move.
