• Sean Dyche says 23-year-old has had ‘really strong week’
• Manager says transfer budget limited by stalled sale

Sean Dyche is hopeful Armando Broja is close to his Everton debut, with the club hoping to fast-track the on-loan Chelsea forward’s return from injury.

Broja joined Everton late on deadline day but has not played since an achilles injury in pre-season that scuppered a proposed move to Ipswich. The 23-year-old remains unavailable for Saturday’s home game against Brentford but could feature in matches for the under-21s as he rebuilds fitness.
