Mourinho wont stand in Abraham’s way if he wants England return

AS Roma manager Jose Mourinho wont stand in Tammy Abraham’s way if he wants to return to England.

The former Chelsea striker has been a key figure for Roma this season and has been linked with a return to the Premier League with Arsenal said to be interested in his services as they look for a replacement for Alexander Lacazette.

“I do not think it is an easy decision for a young, local player to leave his club, to leave his house, his city, his country, to leave the Premier League – which of course is a league that is difficult for players to leave.

“He chose to do it and I think he did it by trusting me. If he wants to go back to England, I do not think he wants to do it now – but if he wants to go back to England, he just needs to snap his fingers.

“I’m so happy for him, back in the national team and loved in Rome. I do not want to say that he has proven that everyone is wrong because I think everyone knows that he is a good player,” Mourinho said.

The player might lead Roma to their first silverware after a long time after helping them to the final of the UEFA Conference League.
