Tammy Abraham targets at Chelsea
London [UK], Aug 23 (ANI): Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham is looking forward to winning the "
Premier League, Champions League and Golden Boots
" with the Blues.
The 22-year-old striker enjoyed a breakthrough season in west London during the 2019-20 campaign.
"I want to look back on my career when I retire saying I left everything out there and I did the best I could. Of course, I want achievements like the Premier League, Champions League, World Cups, Golden Boots," Tammy Abraham told the club's official website.
"I have all of that on my radar but my aim is just to be able to retire and say I did it all," Tammy Abraham added. I won the Premier League, Champions League and Golden Boots.
Tammy Abraham is now a proven performer at the domestic and international level.
Tammy Abraham received a first senior England call-up in November 2017, with a debut made almost two years before he was next selected and opened his goal account for the Three Lions in a meeting with Montenegro.
"Something in my body was saying that it was going to happen," Tammy Abraham said of his first selection, which saw him join a squad to face Germany and Brazil.
"The feeling of getting called up for England is massive because it means that you're doing the right things and everyone knows what you're doing. It hit me on my first call-up. After growing up watching the likes of Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy, Raheem Sterling and Jordan Henderson, actually being on the same pitch as them and training with them day-in, day-out was a mad feeling for me," Tammy Abraham added. (ANI)
I never wanted to play for Nigeria
Tammy Abraham is looking to fully commit to England, with the Chelsea striker eager to become a regular in the Three Lions fold and bring a debate regarding his international allegiance to a close.
Tammy Abraham insists the Nigeria question has not been raised during his time in the England camp, saying he never wanted to play for another country except England.
“I’m a player growing up in England, playing in the Premier League. My ambitions were always to play for England. Obviously, it’s nice to be wanted by two nations, two nations that I love. But my main focus is England,” Tammy Abraham said.
I never wanted to play for Nigeria.
Tammy Abraham told the Evening Standard, “Back then in 2017, it was all about me being young. “It was a good experience, for me. So, to be going back now, I had my experiences out on loan, I’m back and now it’s time to stay here.”
“For me, it’s a massive achievement [to be in the squad]. I’m clearly doing something right for my club to get attention from Gareth Southgate. It’s about going out there, helping the team as much as possible. And then coming back in and doing the same job for my team.”
The 22-year-old Tammy Abraham is still eligible to represent Nigeria, however, Tammy Abraham will end the uncertainty surrounding his international future if a competitive outing for England is taken in during their upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers against the Czech Republic and Bulgaria. As he has mentioned before, he never wanted to paly for Nigeria.
Tammy Abraham already has two senior caps
to his name, but they were collected during friendly outings against Germany and Spain in November 2017.

Tammy Abraham concerned about coronavirus
Players to be tested for coronavirus at least twice a week if training resumes next Tuesday; Tammy Abraham: "My dad has asthma... if I was to return to the Premier League and, God forbid, I do catch this disease and bring it home it's the worst thing possible"
Chelsea forward Tammy Abraham says he is concerned about the resumption of Premier League football amid the coronavirus pandemic, because of the risk of passing on COVID-19 to members of his family.
Top-flight players could
return to training
, they must abide by social distancing measures along with government guidelines and will be tested at least twice a week and 48 hours prior to each session.
However, this move is contingent on approval from players, managers, the government, and Public Health England.
Tammy Abraham,
who is living with his family during the lockdown, has revealed that his father Anthony suffers from an underlying health condition, and the England international is conscious of the danger that catching COVID-19 would pose to his family's wellbeing.
Tammy Abraham told the
Daily Mail
: "The most important thing for me is for everyone to be well and safe, and for things to start opening up. Then, by all means, football can always come back. If it's safe to do so let's do it, but if it's not then we will wait.
"My dad has asthma, so if I was to return to the Premier League and, God forbid, I do catch this disease and bring it home it's the worst thing possible.
"The last thing I need is to catch the virus myself or be in contact with anyone with the virus."
The Premier League's restart date remains unclear amid planning for matches to take place behind-closed-doors, and ongoing discussions between league officials, medical experts, and all 20 clubs.
Oliver Dowden, the secretary of state for culture, media and sport, said on Thursday that the government is "opening the door" for football to return in June.
Captains of top-flight clubs - including Jordan Henderson, Harry Maguire, Cesar Azpilicueta, Mark Noble, and Troy Deeney - held a meeting with the Premier League and medical experts on Wednesday afternoon to talk through the protocols which will be in place to ensure a safe return to training.
"If the Premier League does come back, I don't know what I'd do but the hotel could be an option; to self-isolate away from my family," Tammy Abraham added.
"I've got my dad's full support for going back. He just wants me to go back. He's one of my biggest fans.
"As players, we've just got to be patient and wait for the clubs, the Premier League and the Government to come to a decision about whether it's safe for us to do so. We'll take it on from there."
Tammy Abraham’s club and international team-mate Callum Hudson-Odoi contracted COVID-19 in March and suffered mild symptoms, but he has now made a full recovery.
ABRAHAM ON LOCKDOWN
Tammy Abraham has outlined his everyday activity as the
lockdown
continues although Tammy Abraham has admitted cooking food has not been taking up any of his time.
Our center-forward appeared on the BBC’s Football Focus program, via the type of video link-up so prevalent for chats at this time, and during the interview Tammy Abraham detailed how he is remaining active during lockdown as well as describing his downtime, and Tammy Abraham gave his opinion on a well-known African food dish.
On how Tammy Abraham is and how he has been spending time during the lockdown, Tammy Abraham said: ‘I’m good. I’ve just been chilling – legs up, laid back and just been playing Playstation all day – mixing it up playing FIFA, Call of Duty and Fortnite. I have come so close at winning on War Zone but I haven’t yet.’
Tammy Abraham chose Fikayo Tomori as the team-mate Tammy Abraham would most like to spend quarantine with due to their shared enthusiasm for playing Monopoly. There does however need to be greater physical activity than that from Tammy Abraham to maintain fitness.
‘We have a schedule from the club,’ he confirmed. ‘You can mix it up if you really want to. It is going for a run, different types of run, upper-body sessions, lower-body sessions.
‘I keep active and any time I have the chance to kick a ball around the house I always take advantage of that and it has been good I have been staying active and fit.’
But when it comes to nutrition, Tammy Abraham had an admission to make.
‘My sister or my mum or dad cook for me, I am lucky to have them in the house and not have to do it myself.’
Tammy Abraham was asked by Football Focus to choose between the Nigerian and Ghanaian versions of jollof rice and having been qualified to play for Nigeria through his father before committing his international future to England, his choice was of little surprise.
‘Can I cook jollof? Absolutely not but my mum can so probably the meal I have had most in quarantine has been jollof rice.
‘The Nigeria version is my choice to be honest. The Ghanaian one is a little bit more spicy but it is about the flavors, not just about the spice, how it sits in your mouth, how it digests into your stomach.’
Tammy Abraham's Favorite Shows on Netflix
The working week is nearly over and in between cheering on the Blues as Frank Lampard’s side take on Liverpool, you might find yourself with some downtime. And rightly so, you’ve earned it. But when it comes to the weekend, many of us may be guilty of diving into Netflix, Amazon Prime or other video channels, only to spend an inordinate amount of time flicking through thumbnails and trailers to the point of inertia trying to find something to watch. Fortunately, we’ve got Tammy Abraham on hand with some recommendations to ensure we all make the best of the free time before and after the match on Sunday. Here are
Tammy Abraham’s top three recommendations to watch on Netflix
for what to watch right now…
Money Heist (series)
‘A lot of the boys are watching this right now’ is how Tammy Abraham introduced his first recommendation to watch on Netflix. With millions of Euros and their lives on the line, nine robbers attempt to pull off the greatest heist of all time. Or second greatest, if you count the Barcelona 09 game at the Bridge. Set in Spanish but dubbed in English, the crime drama is the second most popular foreign-language series on Netflix and ironically with three seasons available you’ll have enough binge-worthy TV to keep you busy until we take on Liverpool on Sunday.
Brotherly Love (film)
In this coming-of-age urban drama set on the streets of Philadelphia you’ll find themes of love, family and trust as a young basketball star negotiates the many pressures of fame, and faces life-altering decisions along the way. Accordingly, this the the third Tammy Abraham's recommendation to watch on Netflix.
Taken 3 (film)
Did we need another Taken film? Probably not. Is the film studio dragging the franchise kicking and screaming to the big screen once more in order to squeeze every penny out of it? Almost certainly. Can Brian Mills and his particular set of skills catch a break? Not even a little bit. But if it’s good enough for our number nine, then we’re getting the popcorn in.
Liam Neeson with his dulcet tones returns to the front line in this action thriller as he’s falsely accused of a murder, prompting the hard-as-nails good-for-a-meme x-government operative to send the CIA and FBI on a wild goose chase for a little under two hours.
