Fulham have had a stuttering start this season with only four wins in their 13 league games.
After securing a vital 3-2 victory over Wolves at Craven Cottage on Monday night Marco Silva is still keen to add more firepower to his squad.
According to the Daily Mail, Broja is fit again after returning from a serious knee injury but Chelsea are still on the hunt for another striker.
Chelsea’s West London rivals are interested in the 22-year-old, who could leave the Blues on loan in January, the report claims.

Although he scored against Silva’s side last month in the Blues 2-0 win, the Albanian international has still impressed his West London rivals.
As a kid, Broja had trials at the Cottagers but was turned away before signing with Tottenham in their youth selection.
But he might fall short of signing for them again as Fulham are also interested in Stuggart’s goal menace Serhou Guirassy who has netted 16 goals in ten Bundesliga matches.
The 27-year-old will face plenty of competition meaning Fulham are keeping their options open with Wolfsburg’s Jonas Wind also on their radar.

Meanwhile, Mauricio Pochettino’s squad perpetual struggles go on as they faced a 4-1 defeat against Newcastle on Saturday.
They currently sit 10th in the Premier League table, 14 points adrift of the top spot.
Blues chief Todd Boehly is itching to strengthen his frontline and Napoli’s Osimhen is at the top of his transfer wishlist.
The 24-year-old is said to be made available in the January transfer window.
However, the Serie A champions will likely demand £120million for him.
Should Chelsea complete a deal to sign Osimhen, he will become the most expensive player in the Premier League.
The Blues are among several clubs that have expressed an interest in signing the Napoli striker.
Arsenal and Manchester United have also been linked with him. More

Despite spending £1billion since Todd Boehly’s takeover in 2022, Chelsea sit tenth in the table with just four wins from 13 games.
Pochettino’s new-look squad has also been hit by numerous injuries to key players.
And the Argentinian boss is eager to reinforce with some fresh faces in January.
Boehly and Co are also ready to dive back into the market, having smashed Chelsea’s transfer record several times already.

Fellow centre-back Malang Sarr is also out of the picture and will be allowed to find a new home this winter.
Meanwhile, academy product Ian Maatsen is edging towards an exit despite being hailed as a potentially important player by Pochettino over the summer.
The left-back, whose nine appearances have mainly come from the bench and in a variety of different positions, is out of contract in 2025 and has so far refused to pen an extension.
Finally, Chelsea’s attack could be streamlined amid reports Pochettino wants a new No9.
That will see Armando Broja sweat over his future, with the Albanian already behind Nicolas Jackson and wanted by West Ham.
Winger Noni Madueke is also down the pecking order after failing to impress Pochettino.
And despite only joining Chelsea at the start of the year, he too could be on his way this Christmas.
