Chelsea fail to progress in contract talks with Tammy Abraham?

Chelsea have reportedly failed to make any further progress in contract negotiations with Tammy Abraham.

Despite two-and-a-half years remaining on the academy graduate's contract, Chelsea are eager to tie down their first-choice striker to a longer deal.

However, despite the 22-year-old being happy at Stamford Bridge, Goal.com claims that there are no signs of a new contract being agreed anytime soon.

The report claims that Abraham wants to earn the same figure - said to be £180,000 - as Callum Hudson-Odoi, who penned fresh terms earlier this season.

However, it is suggested that only a portion of the winger's income is a set fee, with the rest coming if a number of various targets are activated.

Nevertheless, Abraham and his representatives have allegedly set their stall out, aware of the increasing importance of a player who has netted 14 goals in the Premier League and Champions League since the middle of August.
