While there’s a lot of talk about Romelu Lukaku returning to Chelsea, the Blues are also looking at options for their younger players, like Armando Broja.
The 19-year-old recently signed a six-year contract with the Premier League side, showing just how much they believe in him, but playing in the U23s isn’t what they want for him.
That’s why talk of a loan to Udinese has been circulating, with Gazzetta dello Sport providing a small update on Thursday.
Explaining the negotiations between the two sides have been ongoing for the past few days, they ‘could finalise shortly’.
The Pozzo family are ‘working on a loan’ for the Albania international, who also has a British passport from being born in Slough, which is why there has been interest from English sides.
However, Udinese are ‘ready to steal him’ from under their noses, likely hoping the lure of Serie A football will be decisive.
We’ll just have to wait and see if they manage it.
