West Ham submit offer near club’s asking price for international striker, negotiations continue – journalist.
West Ham have submitted a bid near Roma's asking price for striker Tammy Abraham, as reported by Gianluca Di Marzio.
The reliable Italian journalist reported on August 25 that the English forward is on high wages at the Serie A club.
The 26-year-old is reportedly open to leaving this summer, and West Ham are looking to complete a transfer before the deadline.
Tammy Abraham would be an excellent signing for West Ham
Abraham’s Premier League experience with Chelsea means he’s already familiar with the pace and physicality of English football, reducing the likelihood of a long adjustment period.
His height and physical presence make him an ideal target man, capable of holding up the ball and linking play, which could make him a good fit in Julen Lopetegui’s system.
At 26, he is entering his prime years as a striker, offering West Ham both immediate impact and long-term value.
Furthermore, his experience in European competitions, including winning the Champions League, brings a level of big-game temperament that could be crucial for West Ham’s ambitions, especially if they aim to qualify for Europe.
Whether they can pull off this signing remains to be seen, as there will likely be several clubs competing for his services.
With time running out, the Irons must act quickly to negotiate personal terms with him.
