Tammy Abraham 'open to Chelsea exit amid Arsenal talk'

Tammy Abraham is reportedly willing to leave Chelsea during this summer's transfer window amid suggestions that Arsenal are interested in the centre-forward.

The 23-year-old scored 12 times in 32 appearances for the Blues during the 2020-21 campaign but is down the pecking order in terms of the forward positions under the club's head coach Thomas Tuchel.

West Ham United and Aston Villa have both been linked with the striker, while a recent report claimed that Arsenal had joined the hunt for his services.

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano recently denied suggestions that the Gunners were closing in on the loan signing of the England international.

However, according to The Athletic, there is genuine interest from the North London club, and Abraham would be open to a move to the Emirates Stadium during this summer's transfer window.

The forward, who is contracted to Chelsea until June 2023, has scored 30 times and registered 12 assists in 82 appearances for the Blues in all competitions.
