AS Roma striker Tammy Abraham has again spoken of his admiration for Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.

Abraham spent his entire career at Chelsea before leaving for Roma this summer. But he grew up an Arsenal fan.

He said, "Henry is the greatest striker ever, my favourite. I still do things thanks to him. It is for him that I wanted to be a forward, watching him play.

"I had many photos of him hanging on the wall: in one he was wearing the Arsenal burgundy shirt with the socks pulled up and the ribbon, I wanted to be like him. I was my idol. I think when I was 12 I argued with a teammate about who should wear the number 14 on the shirt, we decided on penalties and he won."
