The thing is, that Broja has long term contract, so if Chelsea is decided to not sell, he will not be sold. I dont think 30m+ is interesting number anyway, we are talking about striker, who is young, is scoring and will keep developing, so there is no point selling him while under long-term contract. at best, one more year of loan.

This is something, that is happening, not just with Tino, but as well with other players - we lost Guehi (for decent price) to CP, Bate (who I rate a lot) to Leeds. I am a bit worried this might continue as there are quite a few talented players in youth team who did not sign new contracts and they might do the same move as Tino, Bate or Guehi. We keep players like Barkley on the bench and giving them playing time instead of promoting some youngster, who might do better job and might force their way into lineup. So yeah, a lot of opportunities, look out for Vale, Webster, Hall or maybe Soonsup-Bell, they are quite interesting players, who might impress similarly to those who you see. What I feel is that Hassenhutl is hurting a bit relationships with Chelsea with his talking and that might make you miss on some of these talents coming over, as no team really likes when somebody is trying hard to poach your talent on the loan after criticising him at the start of the season.

I am coming here more to check what is happening, I started mainly because of Tino, whom I liked a lot in youth team which I ocassionally watch, so I look out for interesting players on loan and who we sold just to be happy for them. Wasnt sure about Broja that much in youth team, but he keeps surprising me.

I always liked Southampton, so I hope you will not be offended, but I am CFC fan and my perspective on the topic: The situation is completely different from Tino - his contract was ending, so Chelsea was forced to sell, Broja has 4.5 more years of contract. This alone is completely changing the picture here, as Chelsea is not forced to do anything. Best case scenario - one more year on loan, becomes superstar and fights for position in team. Worst case scenario - he will be loaned for 3 more years and will be still sold for decent money. So yeah, there is no reason to sell, unless there comes completely insane deal in a way of 25m to buy and 35m buyback. There is just no other reason to sell now, as the contract is so long. Other option is that Broja would decide one year after signing new contract to completely change his mind and decide he will not go back - hard to do with long-term contract here.
