Southampton have joined the battle for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham.

TalkSPORT reports Southampton have enquired about the availability of Abraham.

Abraham received limited first-team opportunities at Chelsea after Thomas Tuchel replaced Frank Lampard in January, but still ended last season as the club's joint-top goal-scorer alongside Timo Werner.

The Saints want a loan deal, but Chelsea are pursuing a permanent transfer.

Arsenal and Aston Villa are also interested in Abraham this summer.
