Chelsea Name Asking Price For 26-Goal Striker Of Nigerian Descent

Aston Villa have been told they have to pay at least 25 million pounds to sign England U21 international of Nigerian descent, Tammy Abraham in the summer transfer window, according to reports.
The Daily Mirror says the Nigerian Federation target will be allowed to return to Villa Park, but not on another temporary deal — the Blues will push for a permanent transfer.
Abraham notched up 26 goals in all competitions as Aston Villa were promoted to the Premier League via the playoffs after beating Derby County 2-1 at Wembley.
Villa must improve their squad following promotion to the English top flight and the 21-year-old striker is a top target.
Although Chelsea are facing two transfer windows without being able to sign new players, French World Cup winner Olivier Giroud has been retained for next season and Gonzalo Higuain could be signed on a permanent deal from Juventus - which would push Abraham down the pecking order if he returns to The Blues.
The Camberwell-born striker has played only three games for Chelsea's first team.
