Deal Close: Chelsea to sign talented youngster to five-year deal

Chelsea are supposedly very close on agreeing a deal with Armando Broja over another five-year contract at Stamford Bridge.

The Albania international signed his first professional contract with the Premier League giants in February 2020 and made his first-team debut for the capital club against Everton a month later.

The 19-year-old was sent on loan to Vitesse for the 2020-21 campaign and enjoyed an amazing spell in the Netherlands, scoring 11 times in 34 appearances.

As indicated by Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Blues are finalising the final details on another contract until June 2026, with the youngster due to be part of first team this season.

Armando Broja spent time with Tottenham Hotspur during his youth career but has been with his present side since 2009, advancing through the different age groups to the first team.

Armando Broja has netted 16 times in 35 appearances for Chelsea Under-18s, while he has scored 3 times in 13 outings for the London club’s Under-23s.
