The Season Isn't Over Yet, Tammy Abraham Can Surpass Batistuta And Montella's Achievements At AS Roma

JAKARTA - AS Roma's decision to sign Tammy Abraham from Chelsea was absolutely right. Evidently, the English player was able to sharpen the front line of the club nicknamed I Giallorossi.

The proof, he has scored 20 goals with Roma to date. This achievement allows Abraham to surpass the achievements of the legends of the Italian capital club, Gabriel Batistuta and Vicenzo Montella.

Quoted from Italian Football as reported by Antara, Abraham is only one goal away from Batistuta and Montella's nicks when in his first season with AS Roma.

Please note, Batistuta scored 21 goals in the 2000/2001 season and Montella did the same in the 1999/2000 season.

Abraham was able to score 20 goals after 36 appearances for AS Roma this season in all competitions. While Montella and Batistuta recorded it from 41 and 32 appearances.

Especially for Batistuta, the Argentine striker helped bring AS Roma to win the Italian League title that season, when the Giallorossi were under coach Fabio Capello.

Abraham is believed to be enjoying his first season at AS Roma and also thanked the fans on his Instagram account after scoring the decisive goal in beating Atalanta 1-0 at the weekend.

The English striker came to AS Roma at the beginning of last summer from Chelsea for a fee of 40 million euros or around IDR 626 billion with a contract duration until 2026.

If interested, Chelsea could buy Abraham back in the summer of 2023 for a fee of 80 million euros, or around IDR 1.2 trillion.
