Arsenal go for Roma striker Abraham - and Man City ace Gabriel Jesus

Roma have set their asking price for Arsenal target Tammy Abraham.

Football.London says 24-year-old Abraham is among the shortlisted profiles who could arrive at Emirates Stadium this summer, but that Roma will not accept any fee below £67million (€80m).

That is the same figure Chelsea can reportedly re-sign their former striker back for after a buy-back clause was inserted in his Roma deal when he signed in last summer.

Abraham - a boyhood Arsenal fan - has scored 24 goals in 46 games across all competitions for Jose Mourinho's side this season, including 15 in 33 in Serie A.

And the former Chelsea forward admitted earlier this month he is open to returning to the Premier League in the future.

The Gunners are also keen on Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus, who netted in Pep Guardiola's side's 4-3 win against Real Madrid in their Champions League semi-final first leg on Tuesday.

It is a deal the Gunners believe can be completed, with the 25-year-old Brazilian, who has just a year left on a five-year deal, expected to seek a move.
