Tammy Abraham Youth career ( 2004–2016 )

He joined Chelsea at under-8 level and progressed through the club’s academy system. Abraham was part of the Chelsea youth team which recorded consecutive triumphs in both the UEFA Youth League and the FA Youth Cup in 2015 and 2016. During the 2015–2016 edition of the UEFA Youth League, Abraham pitched in with a return of eight goals in nine matches, making him the tournament’s second highest goal scorer behind Roberto Núñez.

Abraham carried his form into the FA Youth Cup and netted the winning goal in Chelsea’s victory over Manchester City in the final in April. During the 2014–2015 and 2015–2016 seasons, Abraham scored 74 goals in 98 matches across all competitions for Chelsea’s various youth teams.

Abraham’s form at youth level caught the attention of interim manager Guus Hiddink who invited him to train with the senior team at the back end of the 2015–16 season. Hiddink handed Abraham his Chelsea debut in a 1–1 Premier League draw with Liverpool on 11 May 2016, bringing him on to replace Bertrand Traoré in the 74th minute.

Abraham then made his home debut at Stamford Bridge the following week, once again coming on as a second-half substitute for Traoré in a 1–1 draw with newly-crowned Premier League Champions Leicester City.

Tammy Abraham Bristol City ( 2016–2017 )

Abraham signed for Championship club Bristol City on 5 August 2016, on a season-long loan from Chelsea. He made his debut for the club the following day, coming off the bench for fellow debutant Josh Brownhill to score City’s first goal in a 2–1 come-from-behind win over Wigan Athletic, although the goal was later credited to Hörður Magnússon instead.

Abraham started in his second game and scored the only goal of the match in a 1–0 win over Wycombe Wanderers, helping Bristol City advance to the Second Round of the EFL Cup. The following week, on 13 August, Abraham scored his first professional brace in a 2–1 victory over newly promoted Burton Albion, including the last-minute winner.

In September, he scored his second brace against Sheffield Wednesday, although Bristol City ultimately lost 3–2. He scored a further two goals during the month which saw him named Championship Player of the Month for September. Abraham was also awarded the EFL Young Player of the Month award for September.

Abraham scored his 16th Championship goal in a 2–2 draw against Sheffield Wednesday on 31 January 2017, which saw him break the record of former Fulham striker Moussa Dembélé for the most goals scored by a teenager since the beginning of the Football League Championship era. Abraham ended the season with 23 goals to his name, second only to Chris Wood of Leeds United, as City completed the campaign in 17th position, thereby avoiding relegation.

Abraham’s performances throughout the season also earned him Bristol City’s Player of the Year, Young Player of the Year and Top Goalscorer awards. In doing so, Abraham became the first ever player to earn all three awards in the same season.

Tammy Abraham Swansea City ( 2017–2018 )

Chelsea announced on 4 July 2017, that Abraham had signed a new five-year contract with the club and later that day he joined fellow Premier League club Swansea City on a season-long loan. Abraham made his debut for the club on 12 August, starting in a 0–0 draw with Southampton. Ten days later, he scored his first goal in a 4–1 League Cup win over League One team Milton Keynes Dons before scoring his first Premier League goal in his next match, opening the scoring in a 2–0 victory over Crystal Palace.

Abraham scored his first brace for his club on 14 October 2017, in a 2–0 win over newly promoted Huddersfield Town which secured Swansea their first home win of the season. Both club and player struggled for form thereafter, however and by the end of the year Abraham had failed to add to his goal tally.

Having gone 825 minutes without a goal, Abraham returned on 6 February 2018, to the scoresheet when he netted twice and assisted a further two in an 8–1 FA Cup Fourth Round replay win over Notts County. The result was also Swansea’s biggest ever win in the competition. On 7 April, Abraham scored his first league goal since his double in October. Abraham’s goal earned Swansea a late draw against West Brom and edged the club a point closer to safety from the relegation zone, though they were ultimately relegated on the final day of the season following a defeat to Stoke City. Abraham scored eight goals in 39 appearances across all competitions during his loan spell with the club.

Tammy Abraham Aston Villa (2018–2019)

After Abraham’s return from loan at Swansea, new Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri indicated that he planned to keep Abraham at Chelsea and included him in the squad for the club’s Community Shield defeat to Manchester City. On 31 August, however, Abraham was sent out on loan once again, returning to the Championship to sign for Aston Villa for the remainder of the season. He made his debut for the club on 15 September, starting in a 1–1 draw with Blackburn Rovers and scored on his home debut four days later in a 2–0 win over Rotherham United.

On 28 November, Abraham scored four goals in a 5–5 draw with Nottingham Forest in the league; the first time a draw of that score had ever been played out to at Villa Park. In doing so, Abraham became the first Aston Villa player to score four goals in a single match in the 21st century. He was later named Championship Player of the Month for November after scoring six goals in four appearances for the month.

By the turn of the year, he had scored 16 goals in 20 appearances and was the joint-top goalscorer in the league. His strong form sparked speculation that he would be recalled by Chelsea, who retained the option until 14 January 2019, given the club’s own goal scoring troubles. It later became apparent that Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers had also made an approach for his signature, although FIFA’s rules prohibiting a player from representing three clubs in a season cast doubt over any potential move. Following a week of media speculation surrounding his future, Abraham reportedly rejected a loan move to Wolves in favour of staying with Villa for the remainder of the season.

Abraham scored a brace in a 2–1 win over Ipswich on 26 January and in doing so became the first player since Pongo Waring in 1933 to score in seven consecutive home games for the club. The following month, he became the first player since Peter Withe in 1981 to score 20 goals for the club in a single season when he scored in a 3–3 come–from–behind draw with Sheffield United.

On 30 March, Abraham scored his 50th career league goal when he opened the scoring in a 2–1 win over Blackburn. In April, after scoring in a 2–0 win over Bolton Wanderers, he became the first Villa player to score 25 goals in a season since Andy Gray in 1977. His goal also helped the club equal its record of nine successive wins, set back in 1910. He was later named in the PFA Team of the Year before helping Aston Villa secure promotion to the Premier League, scoring once in the play-off semi-final against West Brom. Abraham ended the campaign with 26 goals in 40 appearances, the second-most by any player in the league behind Norwich’s Teemu Pukki.

Tammy Abraham Chelsea ( 2019–present )

After the expiration of his loan, Abraham returned to Chelsea where he was given the No. 9 shirt, previously worn by the likes of Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Gianluca Vialli, Fernando Torres, Mark Stein and Hernán Crespo. Abraham made his first appearance of the season as a substitute in the 2019 UEFA Super Cup against Liverpool on 14 August and won a penalty in extra-time, from which Jorginho scored to level the scores at 2–2 and send the match to a penalty shoot-out.

Abraham then took the deciding penalty in the shootout but saw his effort saved by Adrián resulting in Chelsea losing the tie 5–4. Following the match, Abraham was victim of racial abuse on Twitter. Ten days later, Abraham scored his first Chelsea goals when he netted a brace in a 3–2 away win over Norwich City.

The following month, during a 5–2 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, he scored his first Chelsea hat trick, before netting an own goal during the latter stages of the match. In doing so, at the age of 21 years and 347 days, Abraham became the youngest player to score three goals in a match for the club in the Premier League era. He scored his first Champions League goal in a 2–1 win away to Lille on 2 October.

Tammy Abraham International

Despite being an England youth international, and having featured in non-competitive fixtures for the senior team, Abraham remains eligible to represent Nigeria through his paternal lineage and was in the past sounded out by the Nigerian Football Association. His father is close friends with Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick and on 21 September 2017, Pinnick claimed that Abraham had switched his allegiance to Nigeria.

Abraham issued a statement the same day denying the claim and reaffirming his availability for England selection. After receiving his first England call-up in November 2017, Abraham stated that there was never any prospect of him choosing to play for Nigeria.
