England star slams ‘low life' burglars who robbed London home and took off with valuables as he shares shock footage
TAMMY Abraham has blasted "low life" burglars who broke into his London home and took off with valuables. The England star shared shock footage of the brazen heist at his home in the capital. 6 6 6 Abraham, 27, now plies his trade in Turkey with Besiktas after moving there on loan from Italian outfit AS Roma. But he still has a property in London with the striker revealing on social media it was broken into by thieves. Posting on his Instagram story, the former Chelsea man shared CCTV footage of the incident. Abraham captioned the video: "A bunch of low lifes came to burgle my home couple days ago and took some valuables. "Thank God my family are all OK. "If anyone knows or heard any info, please let me know. I will find out soon." The striker then clarified the incident took place at his property in London, rather than Turkey. Abraham was seemingly able to watch the break-in remotely via an app. It alerted him to the fact that there were people detected inside the property at just after 3am UK time. Video footage showed three masked individuals moving around in his garden. At one point, two of the intruders dragged away an unidentified heavy white object. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer blasts Besiktas for having 'no scouting department' after suffering humiliating Europa League exit Abraham returned to Serie A giants Roma after spending the last campaign on loan with AC Milan, scoring 10 goals as they finished in eighth place. The former Champions League winner then made the move to Besiktas this season - again on temporary loan terms. He made his senior debut for England in 2017 and has racked up three goals in eleven appearances. Abraham scored his first goal for England on 14 November 2019 in a 7–0 win over Montenegro in Euro 2020 qualifying. A Chelsea academy graduate, Abraham made his first-team debut for the West London club in 2016 before spending a season on loan at Bristol City. A further loan spell at Swansea City followed for Abraham, but the season ended with the club suffering relegation from the Premier League. He then joined Aston Villa in 2018 and became the first player since 1977 to score 25 goals in a single league campaign for the club. Abraham would return to Chelsea in 2019, recording 18 goals during their 2019/20 campaign, before lifting the UEFA Champions League in his following final season at the club. He then joined Roma in 2021 and scored 17 goals in his debut Serie A season, a record high for an Englishman. Abraham won the inaugural edition of the UEFA Europa Conference League under the tutelage of Jose Mourinho. 6 6 6
