Fulham weighing up deadline day move for Chelsea striker

Fulham are considering a late January window move for Chelsea striker Armando Broja, reports Standard Sport. 

The Cottagers were held to a 0-0 draw by Everton at Craven Cottage on Tuesday night in a game that saw Raul Jimenez forced off due to injury. 

The Mexican suffered a suspected hamstring strain and Fulham face a nervy wait to determine the extent of the problem. 

Fulham aren't prepared to chance their luck on Jimenez's hamstring problem being minor and are prepared to make a late move to sign Broja from the Blues. 

The Albania international is available for transfer before tonight's deadline though Chelsea will only sell for the right price. 

The Blues have set a £50m asking price for the 22-year-old though may drop that figure as the transfer window edges closer to closing.

Wolves saw a loan bid for Borja rejected earlier this week with Chelsea only willing to let the youngster leave provided they receive a fee this month, or if any deal includes an obligation to buy in the summer.

Broja was an unused sub as Chelsea fell to a 4-1 loss at Liverpool on Wednesday night.
