Following Armando Broja's troubling injury, Graham Potter might feel pressured to make a significant purchase of a striker in the January transfer window. After colliding with Ezri Konsa during a friendly match against Aston Villa, the 20-year-old superstar yelled in agony.
Broja gripped his leg and appeared to be in a lot of pain. Medical personnel attended to him right away, and then they stretchered him away.
The injury is a huge setback for Chelsea as they get ready for the return of the Premier League because the Albanian international has no prior history of knee problems. The Blues ultimately fell to Unai Emery's team 1-0 in Abu Dhabi without Broja.
N'Golo Kante, Reece James, and Wesley Fofana are among a growing number of injured players who are unavailable to Potter, including the striker and Ben Chilwell. With Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang set to be the west Londoners' only senior striker, football.london has taken a look at four candidates Chelsea could sign in January to reinforce the club's frontline.
Joao Felix
Joao Felix faces an uncertain future at Atletico Madrid despite impressing for Portugal at the World Cup. The Blues were among several clubs vying for his services three years ago before the forward eventually decided to join the Spanish giants instead.
In March, football.london understood that Arsenal were interested in signing the Portuguese star with Mikel Arteta eager to bolster his frontline following the exits of Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. But, at the time, Felix was deemed untouchable by Atletico but they look to have since had a change of heart.
