EPL: Chelsea striker Armando Broja due knee scan as he returns from Abu Dhabi

Chelsea striker Armando Broja will have a scan on his return to England to determine the severity of his knee injury suffered against Aston Villa on Sunday.

Broja was taken off on a stretcher after appearing to hurt his right knee in an innocuous challenge on Villa defender Ezri Konsa during the Abu Dhabi friendly.

Broja’s audible screams of pain increased concerns he suffered a serious setback.

But the full extent of any damage will only become clearer once he returns, with the injured Broja on his way back on Mounday, and undergoes tests, says the Daily Mail.

Head coach Graham Potter said: “It was just an unfortunate action. He got caught up with their player and the ground. It doesn’t look positive at the moment but it’s too early to say. Fingers crossed but it is an awkward one.”
