MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly placed Tammy Abraham on their transfer wishlist.
The Red Devils lost Cristiano Ronaldo in December but brought in Wout Weghorst on-loan to bolster their forward line.
However, boss Erik ten Hag is looking to bring in a new striker this summer and has identified Napoli’s Victor Osimhen as his No1 target.
They have also been linked with a swoop for Harry Kane, who became Tottenham’s record-goalscorer last weekend.
Now a report in the Telegraph have claimed that United have also drawn up a list of potential back-up options.
And one of those is Roma’s former Chelsea star Abraham, who is under contract until 2026.

The England international, 25, has proven himself to be a more than capable goalscorer in Italy since he joined Jose Mourinho’s side in 2021.
He grabbed 17 Serie A goals and 27 in all competitions last season to help the club claim the inaugural Europa Conference League.
But this term he has not been quite as prolific with just seven from his 27 appearances.
Arsenal and Aston Villa have both been linked with moves to bring back the star back to the Premier League previously.

The switch to Roma ended Abraham’s 17-year affiliation with Chelsea.
He joined the academy at Under-8s level and became a first-team regular after loans with Bristol City, Swansea and Aston Villa.
In 82 first-team appearances for the Blues, he managed 30 goals – including 12 in the 2020/21 season to make him the joint-top scorer.
The London-born ace also has three goals in 11 caps for England but was not selected as part of Gareth Southgate’s World Cup squad.
