Tammy Abraham needs to work like Didier Drogba - Claude Makelele

Tammy Abraham can fulfil his ambition of becoming one of the Premier League's best strikers if he is willing to match the work ethic of Chelsea legend Didier Drogba, according to Swansea City assistant coach Claude Makelele.

Abraham -- who has scored three goals in nine appearances in all competitions on loan at Swansea this season -- will hope to buck the trend of talented Chelsea academy youngsters failing to establish themselves in the senior squad.

Makelele said he is confident that Abraham is capable of living up to the hype, but the former Chelsea midfielder said it will ultimately be down to the 20-year-old.
