The obvious point is would Roy play him? Presumably about as much as Franca and Ahamada. Off the top of my head he's 20/21. Hasn't played much in the Premier League I don't think. Not that I can recall anyway. exactly! No point bringing in young players full of promise with Roy’s caution first approach- not to mention reluctance to give youngsters a proper chance (not 15 minutes here and there). I think Broja is exactly what we need and have needed for years - a strong, intelligent striker who can link play and hold the ball up - with the added bonus of being an instinctive goal scorer with a surprising burst of pace. This could turn out to be the best signing since Eze ……bet it won’t happen.

It could be that he will be a great purchase for an incoming manager and will replace either Mateta or Edouard for next season? Even if Hodgson stays until the end of season he will be a purchase well made? Let’s hope if it happens that it isn’t a loan? We just need to stay up. Not sure he would make much difference as it’s the midfield that requires strengthening, especially the spine. And we need Olise and Eze playing together asap.

I agree with pretty much all the points you make there!

Could we not offload Edouard to part fund the deal. A couple of months ago he was banging on about playing for PSG. I see him more at home in Turkey or Saudi. Anywhere but Selhurst I would suggest.
Some people on here need to use your brain if he keeps up current rate he will easily have 15 goal season which is good. Broja would be too expensive it's typical Chelsea and if Palace did sign him we would be stupid and give Chelsea something like 25% sell on also his wages are not that low.

Mateta ahead of Edouard at the moment, which says it all.

Broja can score with both feet and his head. Technically so can any player

I still feel he is a prospect being hyped by Chelsea. If he's so good why are they looking for a new striker. He's track record isn't great and I know the argument is that he doesn't get game time but it's still an expensive gamble for an unproven striker.

Chelsea routinely pay over the odds for players, in turn they expect others to compensate them by overpricing potential outgoings - its gotta catch up with them on profit & sustainability somewhere. Originally posted by Badger11

Not done much at Fulham Armando Broja could give Chelsea a massive revenue boost in the summer window, as Crystal Palace are open to signing the forward but only under the proviso that they will not pay the £50 million asking price set by the Blues. As per journalist Simon Phillips (subscription required), via Football.London, the West Londoners are open to spending £20 million to sign the 22-year-old; however, the Blues could demand more after slapping £50 million on his price tag. The Blues academy player is currently on loan to Fulham, where he has barely featured for them, which saw the Cottagers give the West Londoners a £4 million loan fee. Chelsea inserted a clause where Fulham had to pay the club £4 million if Broja didn’t start in 10 matches. Edited by DANGERCLOSE (11 Apr 2024 9.31am)
