When he was a raw teenager, Tammy Abraham went to the Championship from Chelsea’s youth team and carved out a real reputation with Bristol City.
The lanky kid scored goals for fun even at that age, and he hasn’t slowed down. His time back in that division with Aston Villa has seen even more goals – 25.
He added another in last night’s game against Bolton – but was then cruelly struck down with a shoulder injury that may have killed his efforts there.
Chelsea fans on social media went wild reaction to both another goal – and the cruel injury that may remove Villa’s great hope just before the playoffs.

25 Championship goals this season for Tammy Abraham! I’ve had my doubts but my opinion is starting to change. Maybe he does warrant a fair chance at Chelsea. With a potential transfer ban the club must look to Tammy & give him a deserved opportunity to prove himself. #LoanWatch pic.twitter.com/j9ryvwRJrw
