He was substituted in the first half of Chelsea’s last league game against Burnley in the Premier League. The coach of the Albanian national team confirmed in a post-match conference that the forward player was not fit for the game against the Czech Republic.
“As for Broja, I have to give bad news. He was with the team for only 2 days. After consulting with our doctors and Chelsea, he can’t make it, he won’t be ready for tomorrow. We have other players to evaluate.”
