Two days ago, Calciomercato stated Aston Villa’s interest in AS Roma’s Tammy Abraham is concrete and he is on the market, months after being considered untransferable in the summer window.
After starring [27 goals and five assists] for the Serie A side in his debut season, the striker has failed to replicate the same form this term. He has managed only four goals and two assists from 21 matches in all competitions.
The England international’s form cost him a place at the World Cup. Il Messaggero state he needs to recover to find a way to regain his best version, also because José Mourinho demands it.
This is needed to help the ex-Chelsea man achieve his goal of returning to the Premier League in the future, where Aston Villa are currently in the picture to sign him.
It’s explained Unai Emery’s side would be ‘interested in entering negotiations’, likely with the Giallorossi, to take Abraham away from Rome.
Chelsea also have an option to get the player back to Stamford Bridge by exercising the €75/80m buyback clause. At the moment, it looks like only Aston Villa are looking at the player, who has already set his sights on returning to England, which was his plan all along.
