It was claimed a couple of days ago that the East London outfit are still keen to sign the Albania international, in spite of the fact that he suffered a serious ACL injury back in December.

Big Armando Broja claim made as West Ham move draws closer
The 21-year-old Blues hitman is closing in on a move to the London Stadium according to a report from Gazzetta Dello Sport.
Now, Broja’s ACL injury back in December is obviously a big concern. However, I firmly believe that signing him will be worth the risk.
The Albania international is absolutely perfect for the Hammers in my opinion, and possesses everything that David Moyes looks for in a striker.
Broja excels when holding up the ball, but he is also very well-versed in running the channels and creating space for his teammates in the process.
He is incredibly strong and works extremely hard off the ball. I genuinely think he’s perfect for the way that David Moyes sets up his team to play.
If West Ham sign Armando Broja, I think he’ll be a resounding success at the London Stadium. However, it is obviously not guaranteed that he will come back as the same player he was before his ACL injury. That’s the risk that the Hammers will have to take I guess.
