Manchester City interested in Chelsea's Tammy Abraham?

Manchester City are reportedly interested in making a move for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham in the coming months.

The 22-year-old has been central to Frank Lampard's side this season, scoring 14 goals in 28 games across all competitions for the Blues.

However, Le10Sport reports that the 22-year-old is experiencing some difficulties in his negotiations with Chelsea over a new contract.

It is believed that the England international is looking for £180,000 per week in wages, a substantial rise on the sum he currently earns at Stamford Bridge.

Manchester City are thought to have been alerted to this potential stumbling block and they have expressed an interest in signing Abraham, with a view to possibly opening talks in the next few months.

While Pep Guardiola's side currently boast prolific strikers Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero among their ranks, the latter is 31 and his current contract at the Etihad Stadium expires at the end of next season.
