Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham is unsure about his future and can’t make his mind up about where to move, with newly promoted Premier League clubs Newcastle and Brighton and Hove Albion waiting for a decision, according to a report on Chronicle Live.
Both clubs have offered the striker a season-long loan, but at the moment the young in-demand forward can’t make a decision. The Magpies boss Rafa Benitez met with Abraham personally to convince him of a move to St James’ Park and is trying to sign him by 3 July.
Abraham was on loan at Championship club Bristol City last season, where he scored 26 goals in all competitions. However, the 19-year-old is ready to make a step up to the Premier League this summer.
Abraham is in the England U21 squad which is playing in the European Championships in Poland which kicks off on Friday, so Newcastle will be hoping to get an answer from the youngster before the tournament starts.
Benitez is desperate to sign a striker this summer as he looks to add firepower to their attack to keep the club in the Premier League. There have been strong links with Burnley forward Andre Gray but Abraham is the number one target.
