Kevin Thelwell Engaged in Tense Negotiations for New Striker at Everton – Report
Everton Sporting Director Kevin Thelwell Seen in Tense Negotiations with AS Roma’s Florent Ghisolfi Over Tammy Abraham, Reports Gazzetta dello Sport
The Italian newspaper reported in its print edition on 11 August that discussions about a move for the 26-year-old Tammy Abraham took place following the pre-season draw between the two teams on 10 August.
While Roma is seeking a buyer in the Premier League with a £25.7 million asking price, Abraham has made it clear that he is determined to fight for his spot at the club.
Everton may be nearing a deal for Tammy Abraham following their friendly against Roma at Goodison Park.
Although Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored against Roma, his future with Everton remains uncertain as he approaches the final year of his contract.
A new striker is clearly a priority for Sean Dyche and his team, especially after signing Iliman Ndiaye and Jesper Lindstrom.
With Beto and Neal Maupay not fully meeting expectations, the Toffees are now eyeing Abraham, who has substantial experience in England.
Despite Dan Friedkin’s failed takeover attempt, Roma’s ownership could still influence Abraham’s future, with the two clubs having a developing relationship [Corriere dello Sport].
Given Abraham’s previous experience with Chelsea and Aston Villa in both the Premier League and Championship, securing him could be a strategic move for Everton, particularly if Calvert-Lewin departs before the transfer window closes.
