Chelsea Opinion: 3 potential suitors for prolific Tammy Abraham

Chelsea are one of England’s biggest clubs and their infrastructure is equally big. This means that they have an extremely reputed youth academy which produces some of the most budding talents in world football.

One such player is Tammy Abraham, who currently plies his trade for Aston Villa in the Championship. In fact, he is having a prosperous goalscoring season. From his 30 league appearances this campaign, he has scored 21 goals and is the club’s top scorer.

He has spent loan spells at Bristol City and Swansea City and has even featured for the Blues having made 3 appearances. His time as Aston Villa has really improved him as a player and his market value is currently skyrocketing as well.

Having had such a brilliant season in England’s 2nd division, the inevitability of clubs approaching the Blues for the youngster’s signature at the end of the season could tempt Chelsea into taking drastic measures. Until then, his future remains a mystery.

Here are the three clubs that should look to secure the signing of this talented Englishman:

Leicester City

Tammy Abraham has all the qualities to be a custom-made alternative to Jamie Vardy in the Leicester line-up under the new managership of former Liverpool man Brendan Rodgers. His work-rate off the ball and blistering pace liken him to the veteran striker and he would be a good option for the Foxes.

His height and ability to get in behind using long strides and intelligent movement make him an excellent prospect for the English game while his predatory instincts in the box will suit Leicester’s style of play.

Crystal Palace

Roy Hodgson’s men have lacked the presence of a prolific goalscorer all season with Connor Wickham, Jordan Ayew and Christian Benteke all misfiring. The constant use of Wilfried Zaha up-front signifies the Eagles’ need for a recognised centre-forward.

Tammy has the perfect skill-set to slot into Hodgson’s setup and can immediately form a relationship with Zaha and Andros Townsend to work magic for the Eagles. His movement and pace will help bring the talented Palace midfield into the game a lot more and he can be the answer to the goalscoring troubles.

Newcastle United

With Salomon Rondon set to depart back to his parent club West Bromwich Albion at the end of the season, the Magpies should look the bring in the talismanic Englishman to put an end to their woes in front of goal.
