Armando Broja is a sought-after player, with both Aston Villa, managed by Unai Emery, and David Moyes’s West Ham United expressing interest in signing him from Chelsea, under the leadership of Mauricio Pochettino. Journalist Ben Jacobs has reported that Chelsea is looking for a transfer fee of £50m for the Albanian striker, who is known for his speed. In addition to Aston Villa and West Ham United, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Fulham are also interested in securing Broja’s services in the January transfer window. However, there is a significant difference between the suitors’ valuation and what Chelsea is asking for, according to sources.
The fee was well above Manchester United’s budget, with Hojlund being valued at around €60-70 million, but the final price ended up being closer to €90 million.
Rewritten: Hojlund was considered a player worth €60-70 million, but the final cost was much higher at €90 million, which exceeded Manchester United’s budget.
As for my opinion, I believe that Armando Broja should not be sold for £50 million to either Aston Villa or West Ham United. Despite his talent and potential, the 22-year-old Chelsea and Albania international striker has not yet proven himself enough with only eight goals in 58 Premier League appearances. Gary Neville may have praised him as an exciting talent, but his current performance does not justify such a high price-tag.
