Aston Villa will move to sign Tammy Abraham, the Chelsea loanee, in a £25million deal if they secure promotion back to the Premier League.

Abraham has taken Villa a step towards another Championship play-off final with his 26th goal of the season in Saturday’s absorbing first leg.

The England international’s penalty gives Villa a slender advantage heading into Tuesday’s rematch after a dramatic final 15 minutes which saw West Brom’s Dwight Gayle sent off.

And Abraham is setting his sights on more goals this season as he bids to fire Villa back into the top-flight, after a three-year exile.

“The aim is 30 goals and I will keep going. It has been a fantastic season, everyone has supported me and believed in me,” he said.

“When people believe in you it gives you that extra confidence. I would like to think this squad is ready for the Premier League. We have come all this way and we have to keep going.
