Chelsea to offer 26-goal striker Tammy Abraham new deal amid interests from Euro giants

Galatasaray have suffered a set-back to their plans of signing Tammy Abraham this summer.

According to ESPN, the Blues are set to hand Abraham a new contract. The teenage striker is entering the last two-years remaining on his current deal at the end of the season.

Galatasaray have been closely linked with a move for the 19-year-old striker in recent weeks.

The Turkish outlet Fotomac have previously stated that the Lion’s want to sign Abraham.

However, Galatasaray are also willing to loan the young striker as they look to bolster their attacking options and keep within budget.

The Lions were suspended from European competition this season due to overspending and want to avoid a similar fate next season.
