West Ham jump ahead of Aston Villa for Chelsea striker Abraham

West Ham United are ahead of Aston Villa in the race for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham.

The Blues had originally demanded £40m for their academy product, who has fallen down the pecking order under Thomas Tuchel.

This amount was deemed too high for David Moyes' side.

But according to The Sun, the Hammers could sign Abraham for £30 to £35m.

Villa remain fans of Abraham after his prolific loan spell back in 2018/19.

West Ham are more desperate to sign the 23-year-old however and are expected to launch an offer this summer.
