Chelsea Transfer News: Aston Villa linked Tammy Abraham still keeps tabs on the club
According to transfer news from Birmingham Live, Chelsea forward Tammy Abraham still keeps tabs on how Aston Villa are doing. There has been speculation in recent weeks regarding the striker’s future after it was reported that he was not interested in extending his stay with the Blues.
Villa, of course, are no strangers to Tammy Abraham. The Chelsea academy graduate spent the 2018-19 season at Villa Park and propelled the then Championship side to the Premier League with his goal-scoring exploits.
It was that season at Villa that pushed him into the fray for a starting spot at Chelsea for the following season.
Abraham broke into the first-team last season under Frank Lampard and was a vital part of the side that finished fourth. With a transfer ban last season, Abraham made full use of the opportunities handed to him and went on to score 15 goals.
However, the England international has slipped down the order after the arrival of Thomas Tuchel and Timo Werner. The likes of Werner, Kai Havertz and Olivier Giroud have been preferred ahead of the academy graduate.

A crucial summer awaits the club and the player where they have to come to a decision regarding their association with each other.
