I Never Considered Playing For Nigeria…I Was Always England – Tammy Abraham

Chelsea loanee, Tammy Abraham has debunked all rumors claiming he considered playing for the Super Eagles of Nigeria when NFF chairman, Amaju Pinnick, travelled to England in a bid to bring the English sensation to the Nigerian national team.
In a brief press conference with Sky sports, Abraham said “I was really set on England really. It was flattering (that Nigeria wanted me) but for me, my main focus was here. They tried to (get me) but like i said, my main focus was England”.
The 20-year-old Swansea city top striker recently had his dreams come true when England national team coach, Gareth Southgate, gave him the honour of being called-up to play for The Three Lions as they prepare to take on the German machines in their Friday friendly match.
