Armando Broja happy committing future to Chelsea: They put their faith in me | OneFootball

Armando Broja is delighted committing his future to Chelsea.

For Broja, a new six-year deal followed a summer of simmering speculation about his future and acted as a signal, from both club and player, that paths are aligned when it comes to the young forward's future.

"However long it is, I try to give my all to the team, the club and the fans," Broja told the club's website. "Every time I do come on the pitch, I just focus on how I can help. If I can score, get an assist or just use my work-rate to hunt the ball down, I want to help the team as much as possible.

"I've always been a confident boy so it's important for me to keep that and remain confident. I feel like I can help the team a lot so I'll keep doing my best on and off the pitch in every way I can."

The new substitution rule permitting five changes in the Premier League has increased the possibility of involvement for players like Broja, who are pushing to establish themselves as regulars in the team.

"You know if you're on the bench that you now have more opportunities so everybody is preparing themselves mentally and physically to come on," he explained.

"That can happen at any point, whether it's in the last minute or half-time, whenever you're needed depending on how the game is going. It's about being ready, expecting it and staying focused.

"Chelsea have put their faith in me since I was a young player. They've always taught me to be resilient and a hard worker and always focus on football. Chelsea have taught me a lot, how to be a man and a good person, so I just want to repay their faith in me with my performances on the pitch, by scoring goals and winning matches.

"We trust each other and that's the bond you have. It's like a family."
