West Ham now offered chance to sign ‘really exciting’ Chelsea player

West Ham have reportedly been offered the chance to sign Chelsea striker Armando Broja, with the Blues looking to loan out the forward.

The Albanian international has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge all window, with Chelsea yet to receive an offer for the 22-year-old despite shopping Broja around.

, the Hammers are one of three Premier League clubs to be asked by Chelsea if they wish to sign Broja, alongside London rivals Fulham and Wolves.

Indeed, with a few hours of the window left to go, Chelsea would find it difficult to hash out a deal now to get Broja out of the club, even if the forward has been offered to the likes of West Ham.

However, a loan deal could now be possible, and Broja would offer the Irons a different option upfront, where West Ham could do with a new leading man.

West Ham have done excellent business already this transfer market regardless if Broja joins in the coming hours, with Kalvin Phillips potentially the signing of the window.

Yet the Chelsea striker would be an ideal option for West Ham in their quest to end their striker curse, with the Albanian a young forward who knows the Premier League well.

If West Ham can help Broja recapture the form that made the attacker a star at Southampton, the Irons could have quite the player on their hands.
