'We have enough options' - Mauricio Pochettino explains why Chelsea did not sign Armando Broja replacement after striker's loan to Fulham

The 22-year-old has made 19 appearances for Chelsea this season but scored just two goals in all competitions. Therefore, the Blues decided to let him <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/minim-menit-bermain-striker-arsenal-armando-broja-resmi-dipinjamkan-ke-fulham/bltcd5b4148bcefa13f" target="_blank">join the Cottagers on loan</a> for the rest of the season for a fee that could rise to £4 million ($5m). Now, manager Pochettino has explained that the likes of Christopher Nkunku, Nicolas Jackson, and even 18-year-old Deivid Washington are ample options for the west London outfit.

WHAT HAPPENED?

On Broja, the Blues boss said: "I think it's a very good thing for him to have the opportunity to play maybe more. I think it's a good move for him. I hope he can take the opportunity to play more."When asked about his forward options, he replied: "I think it is important to recover Christoph [Nkunku] and today (Friday) arrived Nico Jackson, and then also sometimes we forget but Deivid Washington is here with us. The options we have up front, I think, is enough."

WHAT MAURICIO POCHETTINO SAID

While Chelsea haven't had a particularly clinical striker up front this season, Broja scored just one of their 36 league goals this term. Cole Palmer, Jackson, and Raheem Sterling have provided 26 goals between them in all competitions and with the impressive Nkunku being carefully managed, Pochettino clearly feels they have the necessary firepower to achieve their goals this campaign.
