Abraham scoops EFL young player award


NIGERIA-born Chelsea starlet, Tammy Abraham has been named EFL Young Player of the Month for September, following his blistering form for Bristol City.  
The 19 year old has had a perfect start to life in the Championship after making the loan move from Stamford Bridge.
The dynamic striker made his debut on the opening day of the season and has since gone on to score 11 goals in 16 appearances. 
Abraham is currently the Championship's second top scorer with eight league goals so far, three behind Newcastle striker Dwight Gayle. 
The striker also recently notched twice on his full England Under 21 debut and his league goals have given Bristol City a fantastic start to the season, currently sitting in 6th place.
A graduate of Chelsea Academy, Abraham is getting vital experience on loan with the Robins and sees it as a key part of his development.
'I'm very pleased. When you have a coach that believes in you and a good crowd supporting you it gives you so much confidence going into games,' said 
'As soon as I came here I was made to feel welcome and I have a really good bond with the lads. I have a love for the game and always want to do my best.'
