The centre forward is on loan at the club since January and has barely played.

Broja could have been a Cottager even earlier had Fulham signed him to replace Aleksandar Mitrovic in the off-season.

It's been difficult for him and it's been difficult for me as well," manager Marco Silva said of Broja.

I was the main one responsible for him being at this football club. I pushed really hard for him to be here. I have to say that, last summer, I tried to sign him when we sold Mitrovic.

He's a player I really appreciate. He has all the abilities to play at the highest level.

Last few games we've had everybody available. Issa Diop, for example, has been a starting XI player so many times this season and the last three games was out of the squad list as well. No one speaks about that because he's not a Chelsea player.

It's been tougher for Armando, with all his ambition to play. When you go for a loan in the last days of the market, you expect the player to come and have an impact. But when you have a striker scoring goals the way he (Muniz) has been scoring, it is not giving chances for the others."
