Roma striker Tammy Abraham believes Jose Mourinho has turned him into a “monster” and a more aggressive player.
Abraham left Chelsea to move to the Italian capital in the summer and has hit five goals so far this season.
A dip in form for Roma has coincided with a barren spell for Abraham, with just one goal in his last eight games.
But the 24-year-old’s decision to leave the Premier League continues to be vindicated at international level – with Abraham involved in England’s win over Albania on Friday.
Asked what Mourinho had taught him at the Stadio Olimpico so far, Abraham replied: “Just be a monster really!
“I think one of the things he said was I was too much of a nice player and that you have to show that aggressiveness as you’re getting older as a striker.
“It’s not always about being nice on the pitch. You need that character, you need that presence to frighten defenders and I think that’s something I’m learning and getting better at.
