Tammy Abraham arrives in Rome ahead of expected Chelsea exit

Tammy Abraham has been pictured arriving in Rome ahead of his expected £34m move from Chelsea to Roma.

Jose Mourinho's side lost Edin Dzeko to Inter Milan over the weekend, with the former Manchester City man replacing Romelu Lukaku at San Siro following the Belgian's return to Chelsea.

In a transfer merry-go-round, Abraham has been strongly linked with a switch to Roma, and the 23-year-old has now reportedly agreed to sign for the Italian giants despite links with Arsenal.

Now, Abraham has been pictured at Rome's Ciampino airport, where he was welcomed by supporters and posed for photographs as his move to Mourinho's side edges ever closer.

The Englishman is understood to have agreed a five-year deal with Roma with a yearly salary of £4.3m, and Chelsea supposedly have a £68m buyback clause which activates in 2023.

Abraham prepares to leave Chelsea after scoring 30 goals in 82 games for the Blues, and he was an unused substitute in Saturday's Premier League opener with Crystal Palace.
