Tammy Abraham makes stance clear on prospect of rejoining former club Aston Villa - with ex-Chelsea striker linked with return to Premier League, despite impressive form for Besiktas
Tammy Abraham is open to rejoining Aston Villa from Besiktas later this month. Villa are trying to bring back the former Chelsea forward, who spent a successful season on loan at Villa Park in 2018-19, to improve their attacking options. Though Abraham is performing well at Besiktas and is settled in Istanbul, the prospect of a return to the Premier League is one he is considering seriously. Financial regulations mean Villa must act carefully in the winter window though they remain hopeful of concluding a permanent deal for Abraham, 28, in the coming days. Since leaving Chelsea in 2021, Abraham has had spells with Roma and AC Milan before moving to Turkey.
