Swansea City 'on the verge of completing loan capture of Chelsea's Tammy Abraham'

Swansea 'close to clinching Abraham'

Swansea City are reportedly close to sealing the signature of Chelsea teenager Tammy Abraham.

Numerous clubs, including Newcastle United and Brighton & Hove Albion, have shown interest in the 19-year-old forward.

However, according to Sky Sports News, it is Swansea who are likely to get him through the door and manager Paul Clement is keen to finalise all of his transfer dealings before pre-season training on July 3.

Clement has an advantage over his competitors as he already knows Abraham having worked with the youngster during his time at Chelsea.

The teenager has caught attention following his impressive loan spell at Bristol City last season, in which he scored 23 goals.
