Swansea boss Paul Clement backs striker Tammy Abraham to shine on the international stage following England call-up

Tammy Abraham will cope with the spotlight of an England call-up, according to his Swansea boss Paul Clement.

Striker Abraham, on loan from Chelsea, has started only nine Premier League games - all at Swansea this season - but the 20-year-old was named in Gareth Southgate's England squad on Wednesday for the November friendlies against Germany and Brazil at Wembley.

Abraham's promotion from the under-21s comes after he last month dismissed reports that he was to switch allegiance and play for Nigeria, who he qualifies for through his father.
