Manchester United are 'considering' a summer swoop for Roma striker Tammy Abraham.
That is according to a report by Italian newspaper Il Messaggero, as cited by Football Italia, who claim that United are mulling over the prospect of signing the England international to act as Cristiano Ronaldo's successor. Abraham joined Roma on a permanent deal last summer and has been nothing short of outstanding in the Italian capital.
So far making 40 appearances in all competitions for the club, Abraham has notched 23 goals, as well as claiming four assists. He has exceeded expectations and English football supporters have been left pondering what might have been, considering he was linked with numerous Premier League clubs last summer ahead of leaving Chelsea.

Arsenal, to name just one club, were closely linked with the former Bristol City loanee and were mocked by some supporters for their interest. However, his form for Roma this season has meant that the limelight has been firmly focused on him for the right reasons.
Now, it is claimed in Italy that United are keeping a watchful eye on his development ahead of the summer. They have plans to reduce the average age of their centre-forwards this summer and Abraham, 24, would certainly do just that.
Furthermore, it is claimed that it would take United to stump up a 'huge offer' to tempt Roma into a sale. He joined Jose Mourinho's side on a five-year deal for £34million in August.
