Tammy Abraham is back among the goals
According to, Chelsea star Tammy Abraham has come to the defence of under-fire defender Antonio Rudiger on Twitter.
The German international has come under pressure from fans following reports of him having caused internal strife leading up to Frank Lampard’s departure. He was called out for causing issues and also clashing with skipper Cesar Azpilicueta. (h/t The Telegraph) (Subscription Required)
Abraham has however denied the allegations involving the German defender. He also went on to describe Rudiger as a big brother.
Abraham’s tweet was endorsed by Chelsea legend Didier Drogba. The Ivorian commended the need to stick together during times of crisis.
He believes that once results picks up, fans will be willing to forgive any transgressions from the past. Right now, that is exactly what Chelsea need.
Rudiger has seen his stock fall in recent months. This saw the 27-year-old play a largely peripheral role at the club.
The German has been restricted to just nine games this season. However, he did start Chelsea’s final two Premier League games under Lampard against Fulham and Leicester City.
With Thomas Tuchel now in charge, Rudiger could be offered a new lease of life. The 47-year-old looks set to reintroduce Rudiger back to a position of eminence as he looks to rekindle Chelsea’s faltering season. (h/t The Sun)
