Carlton Cole has urged Tammy Abraham to leave Chelsea amidst interest from Arsenal.
The England international has fallen down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel.
Although the Blues have lost Olivier Giroud this summer, he still isn’t expected to get too many chances to play because Tuchel isn’t a fan of his.
He was one of their key players when Frank Lampard was their manager and would feel he can enjoy similar status if he leaves the West London club.
The Daily Mail reported earlier that Arsenal is one of several clubs looking to sign Abraham with the Gunners needing more goals in their team.
In a boost to their chances of signing him, former West Ham striker Cole says Abraham needs to be at a club where he would be the main striker.
He continues to say that even though the former Aston Villa loanee has proven his worth out on loan and at Chelsea, the Blues still don’t value him, he should ask to leave.
‘You get to a point where you have got to know your worth,’ Cole told Talksport.
‘He has gone on loan and done really well at Aston Villa, Swansea and came back to Chelsea and done well. They still don’t value him the way they should do and the way he feels he should be valued.
‘He didn’t play at the backend of last season and he is not in Thomas Tuchel’s plans obviously because he didn’t play.
‘Tuchel doesn’t fancy him and I would look at other options if I were him and say, ”let me go and be the main man somewhere”.’
I think RB is by far a more critical position. Even if White is signed, I believe an upgrade on the RB position is needed. Bellerin must be sold and replaced (not by Soares or Chambers).
Tammy can only compete with the pensioner for the worst Chelsea signing, should he arrive.
Jordan Henderson !
Worse rumour of the summer to date ….. or is it ?
If the signing of Abraham to Arsenal will happen,
That will be a challenge to
Laccazete to fight for first 11 of Arsenal team.
We’ve emerged as favourites to sign Jordan Henderson? 😂
Plus we’re lining up a 30m bid for Ramsdale – it’s official the world has gone mad!!
I think he’s the best,, if that deal can happen I gonna feel proud, and please do not bring him on loan it’s better to buy him permanently, because he’s the best striker
I agree with that arsenal need a good striker to compete with laccazete
I agree with that arsenal need someone to compete with laccazete
Abraham can be considered if Laca and Nketiah are leaving.
