Broja to Everton

Armando Broja has completed a late Deadline Day loan move to Everton after a previous deal with Ipswich Town fell through due to concerns over his injury status. The loan agreement includes a £30 million option to buy, although Broja is expected to be sidelined with a foot injury until mid-October. Everton, in desperate need of a striker following Neal Maupay's departure to Marseille, submitted a deal sheet to formalize the transfer before the deadline. Despite a disappointing spell with Albania at Euro 2024 and a lackluster performance during his last loan at Fulham, Everton remains hopeful that Broja can recapture his form from earlier seasons. The deal represents a second chance for Broja to prove himself in the Premier League after being deemed surplus to requirements at Chelsea. Everton's proactive approach signifies their ongoing interest in strengthening their attacking options.
