Tammy Abraham can get dream Arsenal shirt number if he seals £67m summer transfer from Roma

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will be keen to sign at least one striker this summer after failing to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, following his January departure to Barcelona. Alexandre Lacazette has also announced his departure from the club, following the expiration of his contract, while Eddie Nketiah is in the same boat, although the player and club are in discussions over an extension.

Even if Nketiah does stay, another centre-forward option will be needed. A host of strikers have been linked with a summer switch to Emirates Stadium, one such name is Roma star Tammy Abraham.

The 24-year-old enjoyed a sensational first season at the Stadio Olimpico, scoring 27 goals in 53 appearances to help Jose Mourinho’s side finish sixth in Serie A and win the inaugural Europa Conference League. His prolific form has reportedly led to Roma slapping a £67million price tag on the former Chelsea star.
