Tammy Abraham’s Journey
Abraham began his senior career at Chelsea, where he made 82 appearances and scored 30 goals. His tenure at Chelsea included a successful loan spell at Aston Villa during the 2018-2019 season, where he played a crucial role in the team’s promotion to the Premier League by netting 26 goals.
Recent Developments

- He is under an obligation to be purchased permanently by Roma following his loan.
- His previous season at AC Milan was hampered by an ACL injury, limiting him to 17 starts.
European football journalist Andy Brassell spoke highly of Abraham, indicating that his recent experiences have transformed his game. He noted that Abraham has adapted to different roles, proving his versatility. With Villa seeking to bolster their attacking options, Abraham could serve as a valuable asset alongside Ollie Watkins.
Potential Impact on International Career
A return to the Premier League may also enhance Abraham’s chances of making the England World Cup squad, especially with competition from Ivan Toney and Danny Welbeck. His performance this season could influence selection decisions moving forward.
Aston Villa’s Position
Aston Villa currently sits third in the Premier League, level on points with Manchester City and trailing Arsenal by six. With rumors of Donyell Malen departing for Roma, a move for Abraham could be straightforward for manager Unai Emery.
As Abraham considers his next steps, the Premier League remains a strong possibility for the forward, reuniting him with Aston Villa, where he previously thrived.
