Chelsea agree terms over a new five-year deal for highly-rated teenage striker Armando Broja, according to a report.

Chelsea starlet Armando Broja is reportedly set to put pen to paper on a five-year extension at Stamford Bridge next week.

The striker has returned to the club following a stellar loan spell at Dutch side Vitesse, where he scored 10 goals and assisted two more in 30 Eredivisie appearances last term.

Broja's existing contract at Stamford Bridge is due to expire at the end of next season, but according to football.london, terms over a new five-year deal have now been agreed.

The report adds that Broja is expected to pen fresh terms until 2026 on Monday, and the youngster can look ahead to more first-team opportunities following Olivier Giroud's departure to AC Milan.

Broja - a six-cap Albania international - enjoyed an impressive Chelsea cameo during a pre-season friendly against Peterborough United on Saturday, scoring one goal and setting up another in a 6-1 success.

The 19-year-old has risen through the youth ranks in West London and made his senior competitive debut for the club in the 2019-20 season, coming off the bench for the final four minutes of a 4-0 win over Everton just before the first coronavirus shutdown.
