Crystal Palace have reportedly been keeping a close eye on the progress of Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham.
The youngster is currently out on loan at Aston Villa and is catching the eye with some impressive performances in the Championship.
From 16 appearances in the second tier of English football, the 21-year-old has found the back of the net on 12 occasions, which has evidently piqued the interests of Palace.
It is claimed by the Telegraph that the Eagles are ‘watching’ Abraham as he continues to shine at the top of Dean Smith’s Villa side.
The promotion-chasers are understood to be intent on retaining the former Swansea City loanee’s services until the end of the season as they bid to return to the Premier League.
However, it is reported that Chelsea are closely monitoring Villa’s push for promotion, with the Blues entitled to a bonus should Abraham fire them back to the top-flight.
Palace seem to be keeping tabs on the forward’s situation as Roy Hodgson looks to remedy his side’s goalscoring woes this season.
