Aston Villa Working on Tammy Abraham Deal, He’s Agreed to Join
Aston Villa have been alerted to Tammy Abraham’s availability as they continue their search for a new striker following Donyell Malen’s departure to AS Roma, with Fabrizio Romano confirming that personal terms would not be an obstacle should talks progress.
Villa’s recruitment team are actively exploring attacking options as they look to reinforce Unai Emery’s squad, but no agreement has yet been reached with any club at this stage of the window. While Abraham has been linked elsewhere, Villa are understood to be assessing whether a move could become viable later in the window as their plans take shape.
Abraham has previously spent time on loan with the Midlands club, helping fire them to the Premier League from the Championship.
Tammy Abraham open to Aston Villa return amid striker search
According to Romano, Tammy Abraham has opened the door to a potential move back to the Premier League, with Aston Villa among the clubs monitoring his situation. The England international, currently contracted to AS Roma, is understood to be open to discussions, and personal terms are not expected to be an issue if Villa decide to advance their interest.
Villa’s need for a striker has sharpened following Malen’s exit to Roma, prompting Emery and the club’s sporting department to evaluate both short-term and longer-term solutions in attack. Abraham’s familiarity with the Premier League, combined with his previous success in English football, makes him an appealing profile as Villa weigh up their next move.
No deal agreed as Villa explore options and Besiktas links remain
Despite growing speculation, Romano has been clear that no deal has been agreed, either with Roma or with other interested parties. Besiktas have also been linked with Abraham, who earns £145,000-a-week, but there is currently no agreement in place, and discussions remain at an exploratory stage.
Roma, for their part, have not closed the door to a potential exit, but any move would need to align with their own squad planning and financial considerations. Villa are therefore proceeding cautiously, aware that striker availability could evolve as the window progresses.
For now, Abraham’s situation remains fluid. Villa continue to work on attacking reinforcements, with Abraham representing one of several names under consideration rather than a deal nearing completion. As Romano notes, the door is open – but the next steps will depend on how Villa choose to prioritise their remaining business before the window closes.
