Broja’s current contract at Stamford Bridge is expected to lapse toward the end of next season, but as per football.london, terms over another five-year deal have now been agreed.

As per the report, Broja is expected to sign new terms until 2026 on Monday, and the youngster can look forward to all the more first-team starts following Olivier Giroud’s departure to AC Milan.

The young striker has ascended through the youth ranks in West London and made his senior competitive debut for the club in the 2019-20 season, coming off bench for the last four minutes of a 4-0 win over Everton just before the first Covid-19 shutdown.
