Aston Villa have expressed their strong interest in bringing Tammy Abraham back to the Premier League this month, according to The telegraphas Unai Emery looks to strengthen his attack for the decisive second half of the season.
Despite signing Brian Madjo, Villa remain open to adding another striker if the right opportunity presents itself and Abraham has emerged as one of the leading candidates.
Initial discussions have already taken place to find out the availability of the 28-year-old player.
Abraham is currently on loan at Besiktas from AS Romawhere he is trying to regain his form after a difficult period in Italy and a serious knee injury.
Roma, who remain his parent club, are said to be open to exploring solutions when restructuring their forward line.
Aston Villa want more depth in their attack
For Aston Villa, the pursuit of Abraham is not just nostalgic, it signals ambition.
The England striker enjoyed one of the most prolific seasons of his career during his loan spell at Villa Park in 2018-19, scoring an impressive 26 goals in 40 appearances and playing a pivotal role in the club’s promotion to the Premier League.
His rapport with supporters and familiarity with the club environment makes him an attractive option as Villa strive to mount a title challenge.
Emery is determined to keep the pressure on Arsenal and Manchester City, and he wants more competition and depth at the striker position.
Although the team has performed admirably this season, the goals scored from the front line have been inconsistent.
Ollie Watkins, despite his work rate and link-up play, has scored just seven goals in 28 appearances in all competitions, and Villa have no reliable alternative option in central areas.
Abraham ready to return to the Premier League
Abraham’s profile makes him an ideal reinforcement, physically dominant, intelligent in his movements, and proven in English football.
His ability to play with his back to goal, attack crosses and stretch defenses would give Villa a different dimension.
| Competition | Applications | Goals | Aids | Minutes played |
| Super League | 17 | 7 | 1 | 1,165′ |
| Conf. League qualification. | 4 | 4 | 1 | 334′ |
| UEFA Europa League Qual. | 2 | 1 | 0 | 135′ |
| Turkish Cup (Cup) | 1 | 0 | 1 | 90′ |
| Total | 24 | 12 | 3 | 1,724′ |
The striker is also said to be keen on a return to the Premier League, particularly at a club where he has previously thrived.
The possibility of reaching an agreement, however, depends on negotiations between Villa, Roma and Besiktas, as well as the financial feasibility of a January transfer.
Emery and Aston Villa are preparing for a serious push into the title race and intend to equip their squad accordingly.
