Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham looked heartbroken after being forced off with an injury at halftime during the Blues’ Champions League clash with Valencia this evening.
Abraham appeared to land awkwardly after a tough hit from Valencia defender Ezequiel Garay. Michy Batshuayi came off the bench to replace the England international.
The 22-year-old was visibly and physically distraught after the heartbreaking moment, and looked to be in tears as he left the pitch before being stretchered off.
This was the unsettling moment that the injury occurred:

Abraham has established himself as one of the Premier League’s most prolific strikers after a sensational start to the season and his fine form has earned him a spot in the England team.
It’s been great seeing Abraham go through the gears since being given the chance to start for his beloved Chelsea, we’re all wishing the forward a speedy recovery.
