Chelsea boss Tuchel convinced by potential of Broja

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is convinced by the potential of Armando Broja, with the striker thought to be a target for Arsenal.

Broja has spent the season on loan at Southampton, impressing despite what has been a disappointing campaign for the Saints.

He has scored nine goals in all competitions, which places him third on Southampton's scoring charts. Apart from a short cameo in 2020, this is Broja's first full season in the Premier League, but it has been a solid one from the 20-year-old.

The most likely outcome following this season is that Broja is sent out for another loan spell, with opportunities hard to come by at his parent club, says the Daily Express.

And Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl is keen to bring Broja back for a second spell, though the Blues' ownership situation makes negotiations challenging.
