“I Want to Visit Nigeria,” Tammy Abraham Admits After Declining Super Eagles Offer

AC Milan striker Tammy Abraham has expressed his desire to visit Nigeria again, highlighting his strong connection to the country through his upbringing.

Born in Camberwell, London, to Nigerian parents, Abraham holds fond memories of his time in Nigeria. Despite choosing to represent England at the international level, he remains deeply connected to his Nigerian roots.

In a recent interview with Milan TV, Abraham shared:
“I have a few Nigerian friends. I grew up in an area with many Nigerians. I was raised with that culture, I’ve been to Nigeria, and I hope to go back soon. My mom often cooks Nigerian dishes.”

In 2017, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) attempted to persuade Abraham to play for the Super Eagles, but he ultimately chose to commit to England. Since making his competitive debut for the Three Lions in 2020, Abraham has earned 11 caps and scored three goals.
