According to a recent Football FanCast poll, a huge majority of Aston Villa fans want the club to sign Tammy Abraham on a permanent deal in the January transfer window.
Former boss Steve Bruce pulled off something of a coup when he secured the season-long loan deal for the Chelsea striker on deadline day of the summer transfer window, but new manager Dean Smith could make a huge statement by signing the 21-year-old permanently in the upcoming window.
It is quite clear that all of Chelsea’s huge loan crop are for sale if a club can pay the necessary the right fee, and after a turbulent summer it would now also seem that Villa’s new owners, Wes Edens and Nassef Sawiris, are ready to pump money into the squad in order to achieve promotion.
Things are not going quite to plan so far this season though with the Villans sitting in 14th place in the Championship, but a few good results or a big-money signing can certainly fire a team up the tightly contested table.
Abraham, who is valued at £9m by Transfermarkt, has already netted four times in 10 Championship games for the Villans, and while on loan in the division with Bristol City for the 2016/17 season he bagged an extremely impressive 23 league goals.
