'England call will come for Abraham' - Chelsea striker delights Lampard

The Blues boss had one major positive from Saturday's game against Sheff Utd despite being largely dejected at seeing his side drop yet more points

Frank Lampard believes the emergence of Tammy Abraham has been a huge boost for Chelsea so far this season after just one win in their opening four Premier League games.

Abraham has scored four goals in his last two league appearances for Chelsea, but was not called up by Gareth Southgate for England’s upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers against Bulgaria and Kosovo.

However, Lampard has praised Abraham’s impact on and off the pitch and is tipping the 21-year-old for an England recall soon after his double had put Chelsea into a 2-0 lead against Sheffield United on Saturday before the newly-promoted side came back to draw 2-2.
