Chelsea striker Armando Broja is likely to leave the club this summer if he doesn't get his chance to impress in pre-season, according to transfer insider Dean Jones.

The £19.8m-rated frontman is back at Stamford Bridge following his successful loan stint with Southampton last season, but the Albania international's future at the club remains in serious doubt.

What's the latest news involving Broja?

According to Football.London, the 20-year-old didn't travel with the rest of the Blues squad for their tour of the USA which got underway on Saturday, although he is expected to join his teammates this week.

Regardless, Broja is expected to hold further talks with Todd Boehly after the Chelsea owner met with the youngster's representatives for discussions last week.

The report states that Chelsea are still weighing up options for Broja ahead of the new campaign amid strong interest from several Premier League clubs.

Broja has only ever made one appearance for the club's first-team, a brief substitute outing under Frank Lampard, and Jones reckons that his Stamford Bridge career will be virtually over if he doesn't get game-time in their upcoming friendlies.

What did Jones say about Broja?

He told GIVEMESPORT: "I've always been told it was unlikely he had a major role to play next season anyway, but if he doesn't get opportunities over the next month, it's hard to see how it's plausible how he would have a role to play next season, so we're probably looking at an exit for Armando Broja."

Who's been linked with Broja?

Given his high level of performance last season, with his WhoScored rating a respectable 6.59, Broja is not short of interest.

He scored nine goals in all competitions during his loan spell at Southampton, while he doesn't turn 21 until September and clearly has huge potential.

According to Sky Sports, West Ham were preparing a £30m bid last month, while the Daily Mail state that Newcastle and Everton, who are managed by Lampard, are both in the race for the Chelsea star.

Broja's Stamford Bridge future might be hanging in the balance, but his form on the South Coast at least looks to have landed him another Premier League move should Tuchel decide against wanting to keep him.
