Aston Villa and Newcastle United do not want to pay £40 million for Tammy Abraham, and West Ham United are hopeful of doing a loan deal with Chelsea, according to The Athletic.
The report this morning has claimed that Chelsea want £40 million as transfer fee for striker Abraham.
West Ham, Villa, Leicester City and Newcastle are interested in the England international, according to the report.
The report has added that £40 million is too much for Villa, Leicester and Newcastle, and that West Ham will make a bid to sign the 23-year-old on loan.
Abraham – described as “unbelievable” by Villa attacking midfielder Jack Grealish during an Instagram Q&A last year when asked about the England international – has struggled for playing time at Chelsea this season, and one should not be surprised if he does leave.
The 23-year-old England international has made 12 starts and 10 substitute appearances in the Premier League this season, scoring six goals and providing one assist in the process.
The striker scored 15 goals and gave three assists in 25 Premier League starts last season, and also scored three goals and gave one assist in seven Champions League starts.
Abraham is a very talented and promising young striker who can only get better, and he would be a good investment in the long run.
