Chelsea boss Antonio Conte says he's keeping a close watch on Tammy Abraham.

The Blues striker is impressing on-loan at Bristol City.

Conte told the London Evening Standard: “Abraham is another young player who is the future for Chelsea, for sure. He's very young.

“I saw him only one week during the pre-season in America. Then we decided to send him to play every game and get experience, then come back for us.

“He has great potential in the technical and physical aspects. I think the academy is working very well.

“Also in my squad we have Nathaniel Chalobah, Ola Aina, Dominic Solanke, Ruben Loftus-Cheek. You can see the future and it's good."

When pressed on whether Abraham will join the young quartet at Stamford Bridge next term, he added: “It's too early to say. I think it's important to look at the present and work."
