West Ham 'make Chelsea prodigy Armando Broja their top target'... with Napoli 'showing a keen interest' and the Blues said to be stalling on a potential asking price of 'up to £30m' for the Albania striker

West Ham are being frustrated by Chelsea's lack of transfer certainty in their efforts to sign Albania striker Armando Broja from the Blues, according to a report.

The 20-year-old scored nine times in 38 appearances on loan at Southampton last season and is West Ham's number one target in a move that could cost up to £30million, The Telegraph has said.

The outlet added that West Ham are struggling to confirm an asking price with Chelsea because of Todd Boehly's takeover from outgoing owner Roman Abramovich, which has reportedly slowed down transfer negotiations.
