Southampton are reportedly interested in signing Chelsea striker Armando Broja on a permanent deal.
The 20-year-old has scored five goals in 15 Premier League appearances since joined the Saints on a season-long loan deal from the Blues over the summer.
According to Sky Sports News, Southampton are keen to recruit the Albania international permanently, but they are aware of several other clubs also interested in his services.
Chelsea, however, view Broja as a key part of their future and intend to integrate the striker into their first-team plans.
Broja, who has featured for just four minutes with his parent club, spent last season on loan with Dutch outfit Vitesse, where he scored 11 goals in 34 appearances across all competitions.
The Chelsea academy graduate recently broke a Premier League record with Southampton, as he became the youngest player to score in each of his first four home starts, netting against Leeds United, Burnley, Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford.
