ACL agony for Tammy: Roma’s troubled hitman suffers long-term knee injury

Roma have had a bad couple of days. The Europa League final defeat against Sevilla hurt the Italian team badly, so they needed to finish the season on a high. They went all out and got the win that put them back into Europe’s second-best international competition, but it came at a crippling price.Roma have confirmed that Tammy Abraham suffered an ACL rupture today…Awful way to end what was an already disappointing season from him individually 💔 pic.twitter.com/CK9iuIxRyR— Uncle $harma 🎙️ (@RSharmzz) June 4, 2023 England striker Tammy Abraham was stretchered off shortly after his introduction as a substitute in the second half against Spezia and will miss around six months of action with a suspected ACL tear.The striker was battling for the ball with former Chelsea team-mate Ethan Ampadu and overextended his left leg, causing him to slip and spin to the floor with his foot planted on the ground. Abraham screamed out in pain as he spun up and around before leaving the field on a stretcher with his head in his hands after lengthy treatment on the pitch.Initial reports suggest Abraham has suffered an ACL injury, which could see him ruled out for the remainder of 2023 and up to nine months, although the latest estimations say that he should fully recover in around half a year.Tammy Abraham suffered an ACL rupture on the final day of the Serie A season and is expected to miss 5-6 months in his recovery. 🫤 pic.twitter.com/1zd3wIyF0z— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) June 5, 2023 Abraham recently missed out on England’s latest squad after a frustrating season in front of goal for Roma, scoring just nine goals in 53 appearances. It was a far cry from the previous season, which made the world stop and take notice of the boy who was once regarded as the next big thing at Chelsea. There were indications Roma were looking to sell him at a profit, possibly to West Ham United, but all the plans, hopes and dreams will have to wait until early 2024.Get well soon, Tammy!
