Chelsea remain undecided on the futures of young stars Armando Broja and Levi Colwill following impressive loan spells last season… with Blues weighing up incoming signings before deciding on duo
- Chelsea still unsure of future for youngsters Armando Broja and Levi Colwill
- Broja is attracting interest from West Ham, Newcastle, Napoli and Southampton
- Colwill impressed on loan during Huddersfield’s promotion push last season
- Blues are closing in on Raheem Sterling and deal for Raphinha is still on the table
Chelsea are still weighing up plans for Armando Broja and Levi Colwill for the coming season.
Broja and Colwill are understood to have hoped to see their situations resolved before the Blues’ pre-season tour of the United States.
But both Chelsea chiefs and the two talented young Stamford Bridge stars are thought to be realistic about the demands of the west London club’s hectic off-field summer.

Armando Broja and Levi Colwill could yet be part of Chelsea’s first team plans this season
Talks were set to continue between Chelsea and Broja and Colwill, with the Blues due to jet out to Los Angeles for a training camp on Saturday ahead of three pre-season fixtures.
Manager Thomas Tuchel and new co-owner Todd Boehly’s transfer window business will have a natural cascade effect for the rest of the Chelsea squad.
Chelsea’s recruitment in attack and defence will have a bearing on Broja and Colwill, so the Blues would be forgiven for wanting to secure additions before making final calls on their home grown pair.
Tuchel and Boehly will know they can ill afford such luxury however, with the decisions seemingly a balance for both club and players.

Broja has drawn strong interest from West Ham, Napoli, Newcastle and Southampton, where the Albania striker netted nine goals on loan last term.
The 20-year-old showcased his varied attacking abilities during his south coast loan last season, and is now thought to be ready for a permanent challenge.
The Slough-born forward would relish the chance to break into regular first-team contention with Chelsea.
Should Broja not spend the season with the Blues, a departure from Stamford Bridge could prove permanent.
