  • Arsenal are poised to rekindle their interest in former Chelsea attacker Tammy Abraham during the summer transfer window
  • Abraham has seen his career rejuvenated under Jose Mourinho at AS Roma as the England international has scored 24 goals in his debut season

Tammy Abraham is back on the radar of Arsenal after an impressive season in his debut season in the Italian Serie A.

The former Chelsea striker has scored a total of 24 goals for Jose Mourinho’s side in all competitions this season to establish himself as one of the top marksmen in Italy.

According to the Daily Star, the Gunners are now willing to splash up to £50million to land the 24-year-old England international.

Arsenal missed out on Abraham just 12 months ago after Roma beat the Gunners to the signature of the former Chelsea striker after paying £34million.

The Gunners are hoping a UEFA Champions League qualification will convince Abraham to sign for the North London team as Roma stands no chance to finish in the top four in Italy.

Arsenal also believes Roma may be inclined to cash in on the versatile forward after paying £34 million for him only a few months ago.

Serge Gnabry gives a condition for Arsenal return

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich striker, Serge Gnabry is considering returning to the Emirates Stadium as Arsenal has identified the German as a possible summer transfer target.

According to Football London, Gnabry wants to feel like he has an important role in the team, and wishes to play in a more central position rather than on the wing.

After failing to reach an agreement on a new contract, the German international looks poised to leave Bayern Munich at the conclusion of the season.

Arteta names 1 big player who is important in Arsenal

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Mikel Arteta who is the coach of Arsenal has explained that Mohamed Elneny is an important player for the club ahead of their tough Premier League clash against Manchester United.

The battle at the Emirates stadium against Manchester United is an important one for Arsenal as it could decide their Champions League hope as Arsenal wants to finish among the top four.

Although Mohamed Elneny has struggled for active playing time this season at Arsenal, the Egypt international was given a chance to play against Chelsea and he did well.
