'New Chelsea striker' - These fans urge Maurizio Sarri to bring Aston Villa loan star back

Chelsea have continued to have striker problems this season.

Alvaro Morata was sent out on loan, following a tough first season in England, while Olivier Giroud has never been trusted to have an extended run in the side under Maurizio Sarri.

Sarri went into the transfer market in January to bring in one of his favourite players in Gonazalo Higuain, whom had played so well under him while they were at Napoli together.

But the Argentinian has been another striker who has failed to live up to expectations at Stamford Bridge, like many before him.

The Blues supporters believe there is someone already contracted to the club that can help them next season - Tammy Abraham.

They can still take their case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, but as it stands they will not be able to make any new signings this summer.

With 42 players out on loan this season, Sarri has plenty of players he can bring back to the club to help out next season, and Abraham is one of those.

He scored from the penalty spot as Aston Villa came from behind to win the first leg of their Championship play-off semi-final against West Brom 2-1 on Saturday.

It was Abraham's 26th goal of an impressive season in the second tier.

And the Chelsea fans want him back at the club.
