Aston Villa transfer news as Tammy Abraham medical verdict emerges
Roma striker Tammy Abraham is likely to pass his Aston Villa medical ahead of a potential transfer, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.
The injury expert claims that despite having an ACL rupture in 2023, while he’s not at 100 per cent, he’s unlikely to have any issues with his physical, but it may take him some time to adapt to the rigours of the top flight.
This comes after Matt Law reported in the Telegraph that Villa are aware of the English striker’s availability this summer and a deal could cost them £26million. [talkSPORT]
Speaking about this situation, Dr Brar, a doctor in physical therapy and a sports scientist, told Villa News:
“There’s always risk in signing a player coming off an ACL reconstruction but the key will be how he’s progressing towards 100% fitness.
“His record for the past season was clean outside of rest so that is a very positive sign that he’s progressing well.
“This is unlikely to cause any issues with his medical but it’s always worth noting that he might take a while to get going.“
Tammy Abraham will be a good signing for Aston Villa
Abraham has some fond memories at Villa Park and even the fans will be delighted to have him back at the club.
He has since gained valuable experience in Serie A with Roma, scoring 27 goals in his debut season.
His physical presence, aerial ability and goal-scoring prowess would see him offer something to Unai Emery’s side.
Furthermore, his familiarity with the club and desire to prove himself in the Premier League could motivate him to perform at his best.
