Swansea City defender Martin Olsson has warned that there is more to come from England Under-21 striker Tammy Abraham.

Tammy Abraham rescued a point for Swansea against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday, heading home an equaliser to cancel out Jay Rodriguez’s opener.

And according to Martin Olsson, we can expect to see the striker on the scoresheet more often as the Swans fight to avoid relegation.

“That goal will be good for his confidence. He has worked hard after training on his finishing, so it is a reward for that,” Olsson told Swansea’s official website.

“But we want more from him in the next six games – I know there is more to come from him because he is a good player.”

“He will be an important player for us in the remaining games, that’s for sure.”

Currently on loan from Chelsea, Abraham has managed just 8 goals for Swansea since joining in the summer of 2017, but the 20-year-old has been given limited game-time.

Swansea’s regular striker Jordan Ayew is set to return to the side after completing a three-match suspension, but Abraham may just have convinced manager Carlos Carvalhal to opt for a formation with two front men.

At 6’3”, Abraham offers his side an aerial outlet, and he will be looking to use that to his advantage in the Swans’ six remaining Premier League fixtures.
