Armando Broja signs new six-year Chelsea contract

Chelsea have announced that striker Armando Broja has signed a new six-year contract with the club.

The 20-year-old enjoyed an impressive loan spell with Southampton last season, and scored nine goals in 38 appearances across all competitions, Sports Mole reports.

Broja's form on the South Coast caught the eye of a number of clubs over the summer, including the likes of Frank Lampard's Everton, West Ham United, Newcastle United and Napoli.

However, the Albania international has decided to commit his future to the Blues and is now tied to Stamford Bridge until June 2028.

Speaking to the club's official website after signing his new contract, Broja said: "I'm lost for words really just thinking about it. It's the club I've dreamed of playing for my whole life, the club that I support and the club that I love.

"I've been here since I was a boy so it's a surreal feeling for me and my family. To be able to put on the blue shirt with the first team is a dream come true.

"It's amazing every minute that you get to play on the pitch because this is one of the biggest clubs in the world.

"There's always competition and everyone wants to play so I'm just happy that I have the opportunity to be a part of it. Hopefully I get to play a lot of matches and be a part of the team's success."
