Chelsea loanee Tammy Abraham has opted to stay at Aston Villa and reportedly turn down a move to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Aston Villa supporters on Twitter have reacted with delight after Chelsea loanee Tammy Abraham opted to stay at the club despite interest from the Premier League.
Sky Sports report that the 21-year-old decided against joining Wolves in favour of staying at Villa Park and helping the club earn promotion to the top tier of English football.
It is said Abraham missed Villa training on Monday but returned the next day to tell his teammates at the club’s Boodymoor Heath complex that he will remain at the club for the rest of the season.
The major transfer twist has surprised a lot of Villa supporters on Twitter because they thought their star player was heading for the exit door this month.
One fan stated that he is hoping ‘this is the end’ of the Abraham ‘soap opera’ as he will now be focusing on the club’s Championship encounter at Wigan at the weekend.
Another supporter stated that Abraham’s decision feels ‘like a new signing’, while one Villa fan urged the club to add quality in the middle of the park and at full back this month.
Abraham has scored 16 league goals for the Claret & Blue outfit this season, including a brace in his last encounter when Villa recorded a 2-2 draw against QPR.
One fan did warn his fellow Villa supporters by stating that ‘Delph said he was staying once upon a time’ as the overall fanbase reacted with positivity to the news.
