David Moyes has ruled out a move for Chelsea’s Tammy Abraham, the Mirror reports.

The Chelsea player has not been actively involved in games since Thomas Tuchel took over as manager for the Blues.

The Chelsea forward is one of the top targets of David Moyes and bolstering his attack for next season demanded the 23-year old.

Moyes has backed off due to the £ 40m and says buying such a player is out of his radar.

“It would rule us out completely. We will be ruled out,” said Moyes. “So if that’s the figure and that’s what’s being said, we are ruled out.

“We don’t have that money, we don’t have that to buy a striker at that price, no.

“Is that sort of figure our total spend? It may well be. But you never know here.

“I don’t think we will be making a purchase of that for any one player. I’d be surprised if we were.”
