Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham has been linked with an unsurprising move away from the club, according to reports. The English striker has fallen out of favor with manager Thomas Tuchel and it does not look like he will regain his spot in the first team, with the German manager preferring to go with Timo Werner in his attack. Abraham was a star player under Frank Lampard until he lost his place in the team after the arrival of Werner, and since then, he has been unable to convince the past and current managers that he can be the starting striker.

This season, the Englishman has been restricted to just a few appearances by Tuchel, and the reports of him being linked with an exit have been fueled even more. Despite that, Abraham has still been an important player for the Blues and has been involved in more goals for the club than any other player.

Gianfranco Zola has claimed that Chelsea forward Timo Werner, who has not scored in 12 matches, is best utilised when he is on the flanks. The German international started his time with Chelsea in a flourish after scoring a string of goals. All of his four league goals for Chelsea came several months ago. In order to try and reclaim his form, Lampard has tried to utilise Werner in a number of positions. The striker was played as the number nine in the recent match against Manchester City, which ended as a 3-1 loss. Werner was once again poor with not a great deal of offensive threat.

The striker has been immensely prolific throughout his career but he has been struggling to get the right kind of ingredients at Chelsea. Due to the number of offensive options available for Lampard, it appears that the Chelsea boss is not sure about the best position for Werner.Zola has tried to help his former teammate out by suggesting that the German international would be better off playing in the left side of the attacking three.
