Tammy Abraham, a product of the Chelsea youth academy, will join Turkish Super Lig giants Besiktas in a deal that would save AS Roma from financial chaos.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Roma and Besiktas agreed on a €20m deal, and the player accepted the move.
Interestingly, this deal would resolve Giallorossi's financial problems, as they need to raise €13m by tonight to balance the books and avoid falling foul of Financial Fair Play requirements.

Galatasaray and Zenit St Petersburg also showed interest in the centre-forward, but Besiktas obviously won that race in the end.
The 27-year-old striker spent the entire last season on loan at AC Milan, scoring 10 goals and adding seven assists in 45 competitive games. However, the Rossoneri said goodbye to Abraham on Sunday, having given up attempting to buy him out.
Abraham moved to Roma in 2021 for €41m plus €4m in add-ons.
