Chelsea should be sticking with Broja up top for me as he’s been decent and they need to actually settle a team in rather than constantly bringing in new players.We wouldn’t even be discussing him if he was of a decent character and didn’t have the betting issue as someone would have offered Brentford £60m for him 12/18 months ago.
I can’t see anyone going near him, what are his options:
Arsenal - I think Lego head would be intimidated by him and likes younger players, plus they can’t afford him
Chelsea - struggle to see how they can afford anyone and their new guy has just come back from injury
Us - No way Ange would want him and I can’t see anyone at the club being prepared to sign that off
Citeh - Haaland and Alvarez
Liverpool - maybe a replacement for Salah and then a re jigged formation if he goes in the summer but they are stacked up top
Man U - not unless they shift Antony and they’ve spanked a fair bit on Hojlund
Newcastle - Howe is smart and he’s already said they can’t spend.
Europe - everyone is broke
Only place that could afford him would be Saudi.
There are no viable options for him, he just needs to get his head down, show a bit of respect to the club who have supported him and help them out of the position they are in as it’s partially of his making.
Arsenal could go for him although Jesus was supposed to be their main man and answer to their striker issues - he is also very capable of getting lots of goals and it’s more of a confidence / mentality rather than skill issue with him (and dare I say a coaching issue…?).
I was thinking about Toney last night and also reminded me of Francis Jeffers, sometimes players need to really think carefully about club they are joining as doesn’t always turn out to be a better move.
I'm not comparing the two ability wise, just that players need to have more thought towards clubs they move to as doesn’t always work out for better.
