​Swansea chairman Jenkins confirms interest in Chelsea forward Abraham

Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins is hoping Paul Clement's time at Chelsea can help the club secure Blues forward Tammy Abraham.

A number of clubs, including Brighton and Newcastle, are interested in taking the 19-year on loan after scoring 26 goals for Bristol City last season.

"Paul knows him [Abraham] well from Chelsea," Jenkins told Sky Sports.

"If you look at the options which have been publicised, [they are] Brighton, Newcastle and ourselves.

"So it is left to Tammy and his family to decide where he wants to go next. They know we are in the mix and we will keep our fingers crossed that he chooses us."
