Tammy Abraham has hit back at reports he has demanded to be the highest earner at Chelsea on more than £180,000 a week. Abraham has already rejected one contract offer from the Stamford Bridge club after a breakthrough campaign in which he scored 15 goals before being sidelined by injury.
The England striker is understood to be seeking parity with Chelsea’s other stars before committing his future to the club. Abraham has seen a string of players pledge their allegiance to the Blues, with Callum Hudson-Odoi, Reece James, Mason Mount, Fikayo Tomori, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Billy Gilmour all signing up for the long-term.
