Tammy Abraham joined Aston Villa on loan from Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
Abraham joined Championship club Villa on a season-long loan deal from Premier League side Chelsea on transfer deadline day.
Terry is a Chelsea legend and won multiple honours with the London club, such as the Premier League, the FA Cup, the Champions League and the Europa League.
The 37-year-old former England international central defender spent the 2017-18 campaign at Villa after joining the Villans on a free transfer in the summer of 2017.
Terry was brilliant during his spell at Villa Park, and Chelsea-owned striker Abraham has revealed what the veteran defender told him about the Villans.
The 20-year-old England international striker – who earns £50,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – has also outlined the role 22-year-old Jack Grealish played in his decision to move to Villa.
Abraham told The Express & Star: “He (Terry) was one of the first people to call me and said it was a great club and he enjoyed every minute here. He said I would like it, like the manager, like the players and I believed him so I’m here.”
“I’ve had players like Jack Grealish messaging me every day,” added Abraham. “It’s nice to have a person you know from before to tell you to come to a club.”
Quality signing
Abraham is a very talented and promising young striker who has been a success in the Championship during his loan spell at Bristol City from Chelsea.
The 20-year-old striker will be aiming to establish himself in manager Steve Bruce’s starting lineup and will be determined to start banging in the goals.
