Roma striker Tammy Abraham is the most prolific English player in Europe’s top five leagues, with 19 goals scored across all competitions.
The England international joined the Giallorossi in a €40m deal from Chelsea in the summer. He hasn’t taken long to adapt to life in Serie A, having already scored 12 goals in 26 league games. The 24-year-old is the most prolific player in Europe’s top five leagues, having netted one goal more than Tottenham star Harry Kane.
The latter has 18 goals in 37 appearances this season, eight in 24 Premier League matches. Abraham has managed 19 goals in his first 35 games in Rome.
Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling has scored 13 goals so far, while Jarrod Bowen of West Ham has managed 12 and Jamie Vardy 11. Among them, Abraham is also the player with the second-best minute-per goal ratio.
The Roma star has scored one goal every 145 minutes and is only second to Vardy (one every 135). Sterling (164), Kane (171) and Bowen (254) follow their compatriots.
Abraham discussed his first few months in the capital during an interview released two weeks ago. “After a while, you settle in, find a house, start to explore, go to restaurants, now I am enjoying it, it’s good,” he said.
“I got to the point that I needed to leave and explore. All I knew was Chelsea. It’s nice to explore, learn a different culture, a different language. It’s different, but I am enjoying it.”
However, he could still return to Stamford Bridge at some point in the future as Chelsea have a clause to re-sign him for circa €80m in 2023.

Shame Roman is selling up as he would defo buy him back for 80m which is a good profit that can be invested in a better striker.
Not convinced that he is as good as made out to be. Misses too many and lacks composure. He is instructive not a finisher
