​Arsenal legend Wright backs move for Roma striker Abraham

Arsenal legend Ian Wright believes Roma striker Tammy Abraham is their ideal signing.

The forward has excelled in Serie A for Jose Mourinho's team since signing from Chelsea in the summer.

Abraham has 23 goals in 40 appearances in all competitions for Roma.

The forward has never hidden his desire to return to England one day, and Arsenal are in need of a forward next season.

Speaking on Wrighty's House, Wright said: "Tammy has the hunger to finish the chances that Arsenal are not finishing right now.

"They are making chances but someone is not in there taking them.

"Tammy is at that stage now where he would be in there gobbling all that up.

"I think so [he's ready now]. Absolutely. He's gone to Roma and it's a massive club and he's the main man, he was from the first game."
