In a crucial move for Everton, the Toffees submitted the deal sheet before the 11 PM deadline, setting in motion a deal that must be completed by 1 AM BST. This deadline has come as a relief to the club, especially after Broja’s move to Ipswich collapsed due to an unfortunate foot injury that will keep the Albanian out until mid-October.
According to sources, the young forward has struggled to break into the Chelsea team and had a disappointing loan spell at Fulham last season. Despite making eight appearances for the Cottagers, Broja failed to find the back of the net, raising questions about his ability to make an impact at a higher level.
With Dominic Calvert-Lewin firmly established as Everton’s top striker, Broja will have to wait for his chance to compete for a place in the starting lineup. However, rumors have swirled about Calvert-Lewin potentially leaving this summer, which could open the door for Broja to step in as a long-term solution up front.
Manager Sean Dyche is keen to add depth to Everton’s attack, particularly given Calvert-Lewin’s injury history and lackluster form in recent seasons. The English striker has only managed to score 14 league goals in the past three years, highlighting the need for reinforcements in the squad.
In light of this, Broja’s arrival could provide a much-needed boost to Everton’s attacking options, offering a fresh injection of talent and competition for places. As fans eagerly await the official announcement of the transfer, hopes are high that the young forward can make a significant impact at Goodison Park this season.
‘Here We Go’: Chelsea Set to Add Another Attacker to Endless Ranks, as the Premier League transfer window comes to a close, the football world braces for the final flurry of deals and surprises. With Broja’s move to Everton on the brink of completion, all eyes will be on the young striker as he embarks on a new chapter in his career.
