The four strikers in Leicester City’s current lineup are Jamie Vardy, Thomas Cannon, Patson Daka, and Kelechi Iheanacho.
The contracts for Vary and Iheanacho expire in June, and the Foxes will need to buy a striker during the summer transfer window—especially now that they’ve been promoted to the Premier League.
According to Leggo, as cited by Giallorossi.net, Leicester has designated AS Roma’s Tammy Abraham as a target.
Due to a severe knee injury, the 26-year-old was forced to miss the majority of the season. He didn’t play again until April, but he still managed to finish with a goal and an assist from 12 appearances.
It explains that Leicester has “identified the former Chelsea man as the player to bet on” for the upcoming window and is eager to add a talented No. 9.
Florent Ghisolfi, the director of Roma, is “willing to start negotiations” with the Foxes in order to get rid of the Englishman. He is asking for €28 million for Abraham, and it is unclear if Leicester is willing to meet this demand.
AFC Bournemouth is predicted to compete with Leicester for Abraham’s signature. Tiago Pinto, a former general manager of Roma, was named president of football operations by the Cherries last week, and he is keen to sign the Englishman for his new team.
