The Serie A outfit are lining up a move to sign the 23-year-old as a potential replacement for Duvan Zapata, who could join Inter Milan in place of Chelsea bound Romelu Lukaku according to Tutto Mercato Web.
And now it appears as though Tammy could be inching ever closer to moving to the Stadio di Bergamo.
Missing out on the Blues hitman would be a big blow for the Hammers, that’s for sure.
West Ham target Tammy Abraham set to join Atalanta?
Well renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano reckons that a move from London to northern Italy could be on the cards for the 23-year-old Chelsea ace:
So it seems as though West Ham will have to act fast if they want to remain in the race for Abraham.
Hammers boss David Moyes desperately needs to add a top class striker to his ranks at the London Stadium this summer.
Tammy fits the bill perfectly. There is no reason why we should be losing out to a team like Atalanta in the race to sign the 23-year-old.
£34 million is good value for a player with Abraham’s quality, especially when taking his age into account.

According to Romano though, Atalanta seem to be in prime position to snatch the 23-year-old away from Chelsea.
