TODD BOEHLY and Chelsea’s transfer chiefs are prepared to LOAN striker Armando Broja now — just as long as there is a £35million sale in the summer.

Slough-born Broja, 22, is on several hit-lists, with Wolves and Fulham among his admirers.
But a lot of Prem outfits are finding this window tricky because of the financial restrictions.
Therefore, a loan with an obligation to buy for £35m at the end of the season suits the Blues.
Chelsea did a similar ‘sweet’ deal with Newcastle when they sent Lewis Hall to them on loan with a view to a buy in the summer.
The Toon agreed a £28m fee with £7m coming in add-ons for the 19-year-old back in August.
Newcastle are currently battling financial regulations and are finding it difficult to add to the squad this January.
Eddie Howe was keen on signing Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips on loan but a £7m fee has reportedly put them off.
As for Broja, he has featured 17 times in all competitions for Chelsea this season, scoring two goals.
