Roma ‘slash transfer price of Man Utd target Tammy Abraham and are willing to let him go in summer’


ROMA are reportedly willing to sell Tammy Abraham for a cut price amid interest from Manchester United.

It was claimed last month that the Italian giants are holding out for £70million – the value of Chelsea’s buy-back clause.

But now it is understood he could be offloaded for just £39.5m.

According to Calcio Mercato, Jose Mourinho’s men would be open to selling Abraham for little more than the £35m they paid Chelsea in 2021.

It comes following a difficult season for the ex-Blues man in which he has scored nine times in 46 appearances.

That is a significant drop off from the 27 goals he registered in his first campaign in Italy.

Speaking about his recent struggles, Abraham said: “I know I haven’t been the real me, I know I haven’t been playing the best I can be, but I am human at the end of the day.

“I’ve been low in confidence, but today I had to show the fans I’m still me and I am still willing to fight for the team and do as much as I can for the team.”

Yet despite his poor form, Man Utd, Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain are all reportedly interested in the 11-cap England man.

But the Red Devils are also looking at alternative options – namely Napoli’s Victor Osimhen and Tottenham’s Harry Kane.
