Chelsea Open To Loaning Armando Broja With £35m Obligation Amid Financial Fair Play Concerns

Chelsea, under the leadership of Todd Boehly and their transfer chiefs, are considering a loan move for striker Armando Broja with a £35 million obligation for a permanent transfer in the summer. This strategic approach aims to assist potential suitors facing Financial Fair Play challenges in completing the transfer during the current window.

Armando Broja, a 22-year-old forward born in Slough, has attracted interest from clubs such as Wolves and Fulham. However, financial constraints in the Premier League have made the current transfer window challenging for many clubs. The proposed deal, similar to Chelsea’s arrangement with Newcastle for Lewis Hall, involves a loan with an obligation to buy at the end of the season. In August, Newcastle secured a £28 million deal with £7 million in add-ons for the 19-year-old Hall, aiding the club as they grapple with financial regulations.

Broja, who has made 17 appearances for Chelsea this season, scoring two goals, was previously loaned to Southampton for the 2021/22 campaign. Wolves, having loaned out Fabio Silva and Sasa Kalajdzic, have shown interest in Broja, while Fulham is exploring options amid rumors linking Rodrigo Muniz with a potential departure.
