Leicester 'keeping tabs on Tammy Abraham's Chelsea exile' under Thomas Tuchel

Tammy Abraham is considering his future at Chelsea after being left out of Thomas Tuchel's FA Cup squad to face Manchester City on Saturday.

Having sat out 12 Premier League games following Frank Lampard's departure in January, Abraham is said to be 'angry' about his situation at the club.

As a result, Abraham could leave Stamford Bridge for The King Power Stadium this summer as Leicester are eyeing up the 23-year-old as a replacement for Jamie Vardy.

According to Sky Sports journalist Fabrizio Romano: 'Leicester are among the clubs interested in signing Tammy Abraham.

'He's one of the targets for #LCFC if Chelsea will open to sell him in the summer - Tammy is out of the squad today [for Man City clash].'

The England striker has scored 12 goals in 30 appearances for Chelsea so far this season, making him the club's top goal scorer.

He holds this record despite being given limited pitch-time following the arrival of Timo Werner, Kai Havertz and Hakim Ziyech.

Having played just 123 minutes of Premier League football under Tuchel, Abraham is eager to join a club where he will get regular first team action.

Brendan Rodgers' Leicester side are said to one of the club's willing to offer Abraham such an opportunity.

With 34-year-old Vardy approaching the latter stages of his career, Leicester are said to be looking for a potential replacement.

As it stands, Vardy is also experiencing a goal drought - meaning the club benefit from another goal scorer.

Vardy has gone 11 games with a goal, having only scored once in his last 18 appearances for Leicester.

Leicester will, however, have to compete with West Ham United for Abraham's signature this summer.

West Ham have excelled in the Premier League this season and are in the race to finish in the top four.

However, looking towards next season, The Hammers will benefit from another goal scoring threat.
