“Hello, ‘Black Eagles,’ I’m coming for you; see you at the airport,” Abraham said in a video on board the club’s private plane that was posted on its Instagram account.
He was expected to arrive in Turkey’s largest city later on Tuesday. Abraham signed for Serie A club AS Roma in August 2021 on a five-year contract after a move from Premier League club Chelsea for a fee of 41 million euros (£35 million, $48 million) and was an integral member of the side that won the 2022 Europa Conference League trophy.
The former England international recently concluded a stint on loan with Roma’s rivals AC Milan for the 2024-25 season, scoring 10 goals in all competitions.
In conclusion, Tammy Abraham is expected to be given jersey no. 9 incase he joins the club in Turkey
