Chelsea are expected to jettison Tammy Abraham this summer.
The England international wasn’t in Tuchel’s thoughts for the end of last season and, given the German’s determination to sign a new marksman, won’t be going forward.
The No 9 shirt has been donned by many Chelsea players over the years - but the majority, Abraham included, has failed to do it justice.
Gonzalo Higuain, Alvaro Morata, Radamel Falcao, Fernando Torres and Mateja Kezman are just a few to have toiled with the jersey on their back.
However, given Griezmann’s a striker by trade, he may fancy his chances of succeeding where others failed.
