Armando Broja reveals message from Graham Potter over Chelsea role
Broja #Broja
Armando Broja insists he has received assurances from Graham Potter that he will get more chances to impress at Chelsea this season.
The 21-year-old impressed during his season-long loan at Southampton last season and opted to remain at Stamford Bridge in the summer in order to compete for a regular first-team role.
The arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the closing stages of the summer transfer window has restricted Broja’s playing time but he has made seven Premier League appearances so far, plus another three in the Champions League.
Broja scored his first goal for Chelsea in the 3-0 win over Wolves earlier this month and the Albania international is confident that he has the backing from Potter.
‘He’s spoken to all the players individually and got to know us, seen how we think about things and seen how the person is, their background,’ Broja told Chelsea’s official website.
‘He said to me the more I could keep working hard in training, learning from the other players, the more opportunities I would get. He tries to keep you ambitious and hungry.
‘Any time you need help he’s there to help you, or his coaching staff are there to help you. He wants to develop all the players and help out everyone.
‘It’s been really good to have him here, to talk to him.
‘It’s been a really good vibe and we’re doing really well at the moment so we just want to keep that going.’
