Abraham Undecided Over Nigeria Future

By Daily Sports on October 3, 2019

Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham says he “has not decided” on his international future after scoring in Wednesday’s Champions League victory over Lille.

The 22-year-old is yet to play in a competitive fixture for England but appeared in friendly draws with Germany and Brazil in 2017.

He is eligible to play for Nigeria despite featuring at three youth team levels for England.

“I haven’t made a decision yet. I am focusing on the club,” said Abraham.

“It is always a privilege to be wanted by both nations,” he told BBC Radio 5 Live. “I love both nations and for me I am clearly doing something right for Chelsea. My time will come.”

Abraham was part of the England under-21s European Championships squad this summer.

England manager Gareth Southgate will name his senior squad for upcoming Euro qualifiers against the Czech Republic and Bulgaria on Thursday.

Abraham, who has netted eight goals in 10 games in all competitions for Chelsea so far this season, is currently joint-second in the Premier League’s top scorers charts.

“I am from an area where I have grown up with different culture backgrounds. I am fully aware Nigeria is a massive country,” Abraham added. (BBC)
