ARMANDO BROJA is set to become the second loanee to return to Chelsea this month after picking up a horror injury at Everton.
Trevoh Chalobah is back in west London after being recalled from his Crystal Palace spell on Wednesday.
Now, the defender is set to be joined by another Cobham misfit in the shape of Albania international Broja.
The Chelsea striker joined the Toffees on loan last summer but has so far made just six appearances in all competitions due to an Achilles tendon issue.
Broja’s latest minutes came off the bench in last week’s 2-0 FA Cup win over Peterborough.
However, the Chelsea forward needed oxygen and was stretchered off the field after suffering a fresh injury.

And new Everton boss David Moyes has now confirmed that Broja has hurt delicate ligaments in his ankle.
It means the ex-Southampton loanee is set to miss 12 weeks of football.
But it could also end his time at Everton, with Moyes admitting Broja is likely to return to Stamford Bridge.
The Toffees gaffer said: “We think he is going to be out for somewhere between 10-12 weeks.

“It’s his ankle ligaments. It will probably mean there’s a possibility he will have to go back to Chelsea.”
A recall for Broja means Everton may seek out a new striker this month.
Moyes is also thought to be in the market for a winger.
And reports claim that could see Jack Harrison’s loan from Leeds terminated too.
