Jose Mourinho says bringing Tammy Abraham to Roma 'was a real coup' after sealing £34m deal

Jose Mourinho has saluted Tammy Abraham's 'ambition' and described his £34m move to Roma from Chelsea as a 'real coup'.

Abraham touched down in Italy at the weekend to undergo his medical, and soon put pen to paper on a five-year deal at his new club.

His arrival saw Mourinho swoop for one of his former club's players, and the boss admitted Abraham's choice to leave the Premier League shows his character.
