Transfers: Villa sign Abraham, Celtic loan out Yamada

  • On Jan 27, 2026, Aston Villa confirmed Tammy Abraham, 28, has rejoined the Premier League club on a permanent transfer from Besiktas, one day after Besiktas made his loan permanent.
  • Besiktas activated a contractual buy option for Abraham from AS Roma for �11m, Villa agreed a reported �18.25m fee, and Yasin Ozcan joined Besiktas as part of the deal.
  • The 28-year-old scored 13 goals in 26 games for Besiktas and has 11 England caps, also netting 3 goals in 120 games for Roma.
  • Besiktas confirmed they received 21 million from Villa, making an immediate profit, and Abraham is not registered for Thursday's Europa League but could feature against Brentford on Sunday.
  • After spells in Italy and Turkey following his Chelsea academy rise, the transfer's speed was called one of the 'strangest transfers of the January window', and Abraham said `Some clubs play a big part in your journey and stay with you`.
