'You should ask him what's the problem': Jose Mourinho aims a dig at Roma star Tammy Abraham - and hints the World Cup is distracting the out-of-form England striker

Roma manager Jose Mourinho has aimed a dig at his forward Tammy Abraham, suggesting the England star is preoccupied ahead of this month's World Cup.

The 25-year-old smashed several goal-scoring records last campaign, becoming the highest ever English scorer in a Serie A season and Roma's most prolific debutant of all-time, but has since struggled for goals at the Italian capital.

Netting just three times in 18 matches across all competitions this term, the former Chelsea striker is set to head to Qatar out of form — if selected by England boss Gareth Southgate.
