According to Metro, Chelsea have accepted an £18 million bid from Wolverhampton Wanderers. Chelsea's tradition of not sticking it out with their own academy products is set to continue.

Tammy Abraham spent the 2017-18 season away on loan at Swansea City and is currently enjoying a great run of form in another loan spell at Aston Villa. The striker has scored 16 goals from 20 appearances this term.

Wolves' attack is currently lead by Raul Jimenez who is on loan from Benfica. As there is considerable uncertainty over his future, Wolves want to sort the situation out and have identified Tammy Abraham as the ideal solution.
