Armando Broja returns to Chelsea this summer following a pretty successful loan spell at Southampton.
The striker netted six goals in his first season in the Premier League.
His performances for the Saints have earned him plenty of interest from top clubs.
Tuchel’s plan for Broja
At least six clubs are interested in signing Armando Broja from Chelsea this summer – either on loan or permanently. Current plan remains the same: Thomas Tuchel wants him with #CFC for pre-season before any decision is made on striker’s future. #CFC

According to Ryan Taylor, six clubs have already expressed an interest in signing the striker for next season.
These clubs are willing to either bring him in on a loan or sign him on a permanent deal.
However, for now, Thomas Tuchel’s plan is to keep Broja at Stamford Bridge during pre-season.
The German manager will then be able to make a proper assessment on whether to keep or move him on.
The Blues are likely to be on the lookout for a new striker with Romelu Lukaku unlikely to be in Tuchel’s plans for next season.
