Abraham drawing inspiration from Chelsea icon Drogba

Tammy Abraham admits he draws inspiration from Chelsea icon Didier Drogba.

The striker has confirmed the promise of his 26 goals for Aston Villa last season last season by breaking his Premier League duck with four in the Blues' first six games of the current campaign.

Highly-rated Abraham is inspired by Drogba, who wrote his name into Chelsea legend after joining the club from Marseille in 2004.

Abraham told the Mirror: “I have so many stories from when I was younger watching him, growing up watching such a talented striker.

"I've always wanted to be like him, always hungry to score goals."
