The Premier League's joint-top scorer is keeping the door open to play for his parent's home country despite already lining up in a Three Lions shirt
Chelsea striker and Premier League scoring leader Tammy Abraham has left the door open to joining up with the Nigeria national team, leaving England insecure over his future.
"Yes, I have heard the talk. I have not really been focused on that yet," Abraham said at Molineux Stadium. "I think when the time comes, the times comes. It is about focusing on Chelsea and hopefully scoring goals and getting victories.
"We never know. You can never say never, whatever comes first really. I just have to keep full focus on Chelsea. It has been a good day at the office for the boys and me. Coming here is never easy. We played well, thankfully, I scored three and we got the three points."
"A team like Wolves are a great side and I was always honoured to hear that news," Abraham added. "My dream was to always be at Chelsea, play at Chelsea and right now I am living the dream. I am always a player who believed in myself.
"I had a rough patch after what I went through against Liverpool. I always believed I would come through it and get on top of it. The boys have always been there to support me and have created the chances. It is just about me being in the right place at the right time.
"I am delighted to be scoring goals for a team I have grown up loving and have always wanted to play for. It is just an amazing feeling. I just have to keep this going and we hopefully keep getting wins as well. That’s the most important thing."

Play for the country you believe treats you better. Play for the country where you don’t have to fight against some racist fans.

I think both abraham and Timori and Nigerian. If so both should play for their home country national sides cos they would get into the team and also pick up valuable experience to use at club level. Waiting x amount of years to break into England side is pointless and halts career progression...

I'm an English fan and I say he should go for Nigeria. This English team with Southgate picks favourites and according to Southgate Kane and Rashford will always be ahead of Tammy even if hes a better striker than Rashford lol. England dont deserve a player who like Tammy when everything is picked on favourites. Mount and Maddison should be starting by now but are still benched by Ross Barkley. The whole team is actually ridiculous cos Southgate picks on favouritism and not merit...
