Armando Broja news emerges from Finch Farm ahead of Arsenal v Everton
Ben Ransom has shared a fitness update on Everton striker Armando Broja ahead of the Premier League trip to Arsenal.
The Blues will travel to the Emirates on Saturday [14 December] after a week’s hiatus from Premier League action after the Merseyside derby was postponed last weekend.
Now, Dyche could have further options to call upon heading into the clash as Ransom provided the latest on Broja live on Sky Sports News [12 December, 3:18pm] from outside Finch Farm.
He said: “I’ve just seen Armando Broja walking around. He’s looking fitter again after getting some minutes in a behind-closed-doors game.”
Everton could unleash Armando Broja v Arsenal
The Everton faithful have been eagerly awaiting to see the Chelsea loanee in action for Everton and caught a brief glimpse in his cameo during the 4-0 win against Wolves.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin continues to lead the line at Goodison Park but has yet to find the back of the net since the 3-2 loss against Aston Villa in September.
Dyche has experimented with Beto in recent weeks but has been rewarded with a similar degree of success – the Blues desperately lack a recognised goalscorer.
However, Broja has overcome the injury woes that have plagued his time with the Toffees, and he could leapfrog his teammates to a starting berth against Arsenal – a new focal point is a priority.
The Albanian will be eager to make an immediate impact, and he can breathe a new lease of life into the Everton frontline.
Calvert-Lewin and Beto are shot of confidence at Goodison Park and have had ample opportunity to prove they can provide goals in the Premier League – it is time to move in a new direction.
Arsenal are no easy opponent, and the Blues will find chances few and far between at the Emirates, and Broja is far and away more likely to take any opportunities that come his way on Saturday (14 December).
If he is fit, he has to start for the Toffees.
