Armando Broja returns to the National Team, proving once again to be indispensable, as shown on last Monday evening’s friendly against Sweden, in Stockholm. A disallowed penalty while he was obstructed in the Swedish penalty area, a disallowed goal for offside, or a not given free kick for a handball, and that’s enough to say that Broja is needed.

In fact, also due to injuries, Broja did not play a single match for the National Team during the Euro 2024 Qualifiers. He returned and initially played 22 minutes as a substitute in the friendly with Chile and 77 minutes as a starter in the match with Sweden. Of course, he still has time to get to his peak form, as he needs more playing minutes at Fulham F.C., returning the right fit for the Red and Black attack as a player who keeps the entire opposing defense in tension and sends own team forward.

His signals in Stockholm were probably also valid for Sylvinho in the conditions, as Manaj, who did not play a single minute against the Nordics, did not have the same performance in the National Team as in the Turkish championship. June’s friendlies against Liechtenstein and Azerbaijan, which are the last tests before the Euro ’24 Finals in Germany , will reveal even better the qualities of Broja, who remains a point of reference for the Red and Black attack.
