Forgotten ex-Chelsea striker holding out for reunion with Christian Pulisic at AC Milan amid Premier League transfer interest

Milan have been flirting with the potential signing of the English attacker from Roma for weeks, though the clubs have not been in contact for some time, according to Sky Sport in Italy. New Rossoneri boss Paulo Fonseca is eager to bring Abraham to San Siro this summer, though, and sees him as a top priority as he looks to strengthen the team's attack even further after signing Alvaro Morata from Atletico Madrid.

The 26-year-old is eager to make the move to Milan, having endured a difficult time at Roma as an anterior cruciate ligament injury saw him miss the majority of last season. He has also been linked with a return to the Premier League with Everton and West Ham reportedly interested, but he would much rather remain in Italy and link up with his former Stamford Bridge co-stars Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Fikayo Tomori at Milan, according to the report.

Despite the ongoing links to Milan and reports that Roma are prepared to sell him, coach Daniele De Rossi insisted recently that Abraham still has a future at the capital club, saying that he is "banking" on the forward for next season. Roma have lost another former Chelsea striker in Romelu Lukaku, who won't be returning on loan.

After three seasons at his current club, the 11-time England international appears ready to embark on a new adventure by swapping Roma for Milan in the current transfer window.
