Some Chelsea fans on Twitter believe that Tammy Abraham is as good as gone, amid speculation about a move to Arsenal among others.

Abraham is heavily linked with a move to Arsenal and according to Calciomercato, he would prefer to join his club’s London rivals over Roma, with Jose Mourinho also rumoured to be keen.

The Blues won the European Super Cup on penalties against Villarreal on Wednesday night but interestingly, Thomas Tuchel, who made six substitutions, never brought the English striker off the bench.

And some fans of the Stamford Bridge club believe that it is linked to a fear of injury, ruining a £40 million exit.

Here’s what they’re saying:

Off?

Yes it does seem like this could very well be linked to an exit.

Tuchel is known to be not the biggest fan of Abraham anyway, but he has been playing the 23-year-old hitman during pre-season games.

And therefore his omission last night is more than likely a sign that he’s set to leave the West Londoners.

Whether he goes to Arsenal or not is another matter entirely but the Gunners certainly seem interested, as does the player, and it’ll be fascinating to see how this pans out.
