Manchester United interested as AS Roma star Tammy Abraham seeks Premier League return
Manchester United target Tammy Abraham wants a move back to the Premier League from AS Roma, according to Corriere dello Sport via Sport Witness (h/t Manchester Evening News).
The 24-year-old signed for Jose Mourinho’s team in the summer of 2021 from Chelsea. Abraham has thrived in his time in Serie A. The centre-forward was previously satisfied staying in Italy. However, he has changed his mind and is looking to get back to English football.
The Red Devils are eyeing a move for Abraham. Graham Potter’s team are also in the race for their former star. And Arsenal have also been credited with an interest in the 24-year-old.
Abraham came up through the Chelsea ranks. After a few impressive seasons on loan in the Championship, the England international came back to the Stamford Bridge side.
In the 2019/20 campaign, Abraham had a breakout season with Chelsea. The 24-year-old played 47 times for the Blues in all competitions, scoring 18 goals and providing six assists.
However, with the dismissal of Frank Lampard, Abraham lost his place in the Chelsea starting lineup. The centre-forward then moved to Roma for the 2021/22 season. The 24-year-old featured in 53 games in all competitions for the Italians, scoring 27 goals as they won the inaugural UEFA Conference League.
Considering Abraham’s form, many PL clubs are evidently looking to acquire his signature. United seemingly need to bolster their forward line in the upcoming transfer windows.

Erik ten Hag has a number of attacking options at his disposal. However, there is seemingly uncertainty around some of our star forwards.
Abraham was on the bench for Gareth Southgate’s team in the recent UEFA Nations League fixtures against Italy and Germany. The 24-year-old is evidently a backup to Harry Kane in the national setup. It will be interesting to see if the centre-forward finds a move back to England after the World Cup.
