[Albion] Broja

[BluesRockDJ]

Potter has said he would sanction a £30m sale to AC Milan in January for one of the most promising striker (imho) in the Premier League.
Should we consider a bid ?

You must be smoking some good shit if you think we would pay that much for a striker.

Or they’d pick us over AC Milan

Or that he's much better than what we've got.

He had half a good season for Saints before dropping right off, and that from a Saints STH mate who goes to every game. 6 Premier League goals last season - fewer than Maupay.

Plus, if Potter's off loading him I doubt he'd fit our "Potter in his winless streaks" style.

Buy him please

 

[Mellotron]

Has a physical presence we are lacking. Clearly a talent. No chance we’d get him.

Come back in a few years, and see how his career goes. My hunch is well, very well. Would love him, but we won't get him.

Really? If the premise of the thread is correct then Potter doesn't want him at Chelsea, and Potter's raison d'etre is improving young players.

If he really is considering sending Broja to Italy for £30 mill then it suggests he's now a coach who has to deliver with (excuse the phrase) top, top players. Or he doesn't rate Broja.

More likely £30 million to anyone else, but £60 million to us in view of the Cucurella dealings

No "stealing our entire coaching staff" discount

We’ve been shocking in front of goal since Bruno left

Only 15 months ago multiple reports suggested we bid €28m for Nunez.

....or he'd pick us over Benfica!

Some reports suggested we’d agreed a fee but the deal collapsed partly due to their club president etc:/ some financial complications at their end - but not because Nunez didn’t want to come to the Premier League and Albion.

Why £24m Darwin Nunez transfer fell apart one year before Liverpool move

New Liverpool striker, Darwin Nunez, was reportedly 'almost' a Brighton player last summer, but a deal collapsed with Benfica at a late stage

Different levels though. If Chelsea are to go for leagues and CLs then you don’t get a lot of chance to blood youngsters especially strikers consistently.

From what I’ve seen Broja would certainly bolster our attacking options considerably

 

[Frutos]

I'd take him, but why would he pick us over Milan?

Where and when did he say that? Looks like he is very much in GPs plans.

Then again, Potter has never liked playing with an out and out number 9 in his side, favouring fluidity to his play. and players who offer pleanty of movement.

Just playing Devil's Advocate you understand.

Chelsea’s Armando Broja suffers knee injury during Aston Villa friendly

Albanian collided with Ezri Konsa in Abu Dhabi mid-season friendly as Aston Villa won 1-0 after John McGinn goal

www.theguardian.com

Chelsea forward Armando Broja suffered what looked a serious knee injury during a friendly defeat to Aston Villa in Abu Dhabi.

The Albania international was hurt in a collision with Villa defender Ezri Konsa early in the first half, which left the 21-year-old screaming in pain and clutching his right knee before being taken off on a stretcher.

Doesn't sound good for him.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

I'd happily put in a bid for him, after all Chelsea do owe us one, although not for the £30m plus that was suggested on here a few posts back.
