The 23-year-old Albanian international striker arrives with plenty of Premier League experience, having spent loan spells in the top-flight at Southampton, Fulham and Everton so far in his career. Broja signed his first contract in professional football with Chelsea in 2020. A spell in the Netherlands at Vitesse, where he scored 10 league goals in 30 appearances, was followed by another loan period at Southampton, where he went on to make 32 Premier League appearances, scoring six goals and – in doing so – became the first Albanian player to score in the English top-flight. After returning to parent club Chelsea, Broja spent a short period on loan with Fulham for the second half of the 2023/24 campaign, before another stint away from Stamford Bridge last season, this time on Merseyside with Everton. The striker, who qualifies for the Albanian national team through his parents, is firmly established at international level, having featured for his country from U19s to senior level, where he has 27 appearances to his name already at the age of 23.
