The president of the Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF) Amaju Pinnick has confirmed contact with red hot Chelsea prospect Tammy Abraham over pledging his international future to Nigeria.
The impressive Johnny Edward who writes for Complete Sports reports a chat with Pinnick, where the NFF supremo confirms contact with Tammy Abrahams.
“Tammy Abraham’s dad is my childhood friend, we grew up in the same neighbourhood in Warri,” Pinnick revealed in a chat.
“We speak quite often. Just finished another convo with him now. When we are ready, I am sure the NFF will not have any problem in securing his release. Tammy is like a son to me.”
Abraham has taken the English Championship by storm since joining Bristol City on loan from Chelsea with 11 goals from 14 games to his name.
He has already represented England at various youth level from U-18s to 21s, with a brace on his debut for the U-21s.
