# Twitter talk as Aston Villa enter discussions with Chelsea over Tammy Abraham

Aston Villa have already signed Emiliano [Buendia](https://readastonvilla.com/2021/06/08/stan-collymore-delighted-aston-villa-have-signed-creative-influence-emiliano-buendia/)from Norwich City and Ashley [Young](https://readastonvilla.com/2021/06/18/ashley-young-trends-on-social-media-after-aston-villa-return-is-confirmed/)from Inter Milan, but Dean Smith isn’t done there. The Midlands outfit are still on the hunt for a central midfielder and *Sky Sports*, *Sport Italia* and *Calciomercato’s* [Rudy Galetti](https://twitter.com/RudyGaletti/status/1410352884122853388) says Tammy Abraham is on their radar.

Villa have reportedly entered talks with Chelsea and are preparing an offer of €45m (£38.8m). Abraham has an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge after losing his place in the side under Thomas Tuchel, starting just [12 Premier League games](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tammy-abraham/leistungsdaten/spieler/331726/saison/2020/plus/1#gesamt) last season. Timo Werner and Olivier Giroud have been preferred in attack, so the 23-year-old could be on his way.

Abraham impressed during a [loan spell](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tammy-abraham/transfers/spieler/331726) at Villa in 2018/19, scoring 26 goals and making three assists in [40 games](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tammy-abraham/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/331726) as they earned promotion to the Premier League. Villa would welcome the England international back with open arms and there’s a lot of buzz among fans on [social media](https://twitter.com/search?q=tammy%20abraham&src=typed_query), but it remains to be seen if Abraham is open to renewing acquaintances.

Chelsea won the Champions League last season while Aston Villa finished in mid-table in the Premier League, so he might consider the move a backwards step. Given the rise of Jack Grealish, however, Abraham should view Villa Park the perfect place to turn his career around. It would be a very popular switch among fans given the positive reaction so far.
