Arsenal encouraged in move for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham

Arsenal are lining up a move for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham.

The Mirror says Chelsea have alerted Arsenal to the availability of Tammy Abraham as the Blues look to sell the forward in the transfer window.

Abraham has already been made accessible to several clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur and Inter Milan as part of Chelsea's bid to bag a big striker in the mould of Harry Kane.

A transfer to the Gunners could be more appealing to Abraham, though, as he was an Arsenal supporter growing up.

If Arsenal do want to sign the 23-year-old then they will have to sell some players to afford him with the Blues aiming to get £40m for the player.

Abraham has stated in the past: To be honest I was an Arsenal fan. It didn't make any difference at Chelsea.

"When you're young and you choose who to support, if it's a family thing, it's a family thing. Luckily for me it was a family thing, so it wasn't really a problem at Chelsea."
