I doubt anyone knows unless they watch the Chelsea youth teams regularly. He is a full Albanian international so maybe someone has seen him in an international game but seems unlikely
Hopefully he performs well, Not a striker i expect us to sign long term though as he has signed a new deal with Chelsea. Leach has just said he is one of two Strikers we plan to bring in! We are 'close'to a couple of others!
A quick Google. He's 6'3, 19, Played for Vitesse last season and scored 10 goals in 30 games. Sounds like one of the two strikers the club wants to bring in.
We seem to be doing a lot of business with Chelsea this window. It would be quite a good partnership if we regularly helped develop their youth players in exchange for loans and deals like Livramento. I can see it benefiting both clubs.
It would be even nicer if someone followed Broja too.. but it does on paper seem to be a good partnership of players coming in from Chelsea Thus far.
Offer £8-10 Million, Add a bit back of 40/50 million.. and a sell on fee... good business again potentially.
Bored on a Sunday afternoon/evening and decided to go and read a Blackburn forum about Armstrong in case we end up getting him Reaction is pretty mixed, half saying think he would do well in PL others saying they don’t think he has it. Sounds like he is a pretty selfish player and basically shoots on sight. They are fully expecting him to be off this window, just a question as to who ultimately signs him
Thought that may be the case. I can live with it if he goes, as long as our recruitment continues to improve.
So long as the fee is decent then I think we would cope without him. It would be interesting to see who we replaced him with as a partnership of Bednarek and Salisu worries me.
We still need 4 players probably (if I was in charge I would make that 6) 2 forward players, a centre mid and a centre back seem to be the 4 the club are going for. I would add a winger and a keeper but don’t think the club are interested. Should be a busy few weeks. Unfortunately we haven’t got the players in before the season starts and we have a tough start so could be a slow start to the season
Bloody hell we are going to be busy. Still got 2 strikers to sign, CM, another LB, potentially another CB if Vesty leaves and now Chamberlain as well!
They are just talking about this on TalkSPORT now. I’d love AOC back. Also they think the Armando Broja deal is nearly done. Talking about Didier Drogba comparisons!
I thought it was a defensive CM that can play at CB so wouldn't think so. Unless Vestergaard leaving changes that perhaps
