Bukayo Saka has hailed England team-mate Tammy Abraham for adjusting to life in Italy.

The forward left Chelsea for Roma in the summer, and his form earned him a recall into Gareth Southgate’s squad.

And he got a goal on his return on Saturday, helping England to a 5-0 victory over Andorra.

Saka said: “I’m really happy for Tammy.

“He’s my boy. I’m just really happy he got his goal because he’s been working really hard, he’s been in really good form out in Italy so I’m really happy for him.

“It is football and different challenges will come up and I feel he’s dealt with this one (moving to Roma) well so far, I just wish him the best and I’m happy he got his goal.”

Meanwhile, former Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe says he is a big fan of former Arsenal target Tammy Abraham.

Abraham – who attracted interest from the Gunners in the summer – eventually moved to Roma to revive his England career.

His form earned him a recall to Gareth Sotuhgate’s squad, and he scored in yesterday’s 5-0 win over Andorra.

Defoe said: “I am a big fan of Tammy Abraham, to be honest. Top player.”
