Emenalo Gives Green Light For Chelsea Whizkid Abraham To Return To Bristol City
Published: March 09, 2017
England U21 international Tammy Abraham is set to return to action for Bristol City when they trade tackles with Wigan Athletic in the Championship on Saturday.
The Chelsea loanee has not played competitively since picking up a thigh injury in the 2-1 loss to Leeds United, and had to return to Stamford Bridge to undergo treatment.
Bristol City manager Lee Johnson had been in contract with retired Nigeria international Michael Emenalo, who is the head of football development at Chelsea, and the medical team before they sanctioned the return of Abraham.
“It’s great to have Tammy back through the door and available, ” Johnson said, according to Bristol Post.
“He has been a really important player for us this season and his return will give everybody in the camp a lift.”
Abraham, who has netted 21 goals for the Robins in all competitions, is expected to train with the first-team squad on Thursday morning.
