Thomas Tuchel has refused to address Tammy Abraham’s long-term Chelsea future while the Blues’ season comes to the crunch. West Ham head a sizeable queue of Premier League suitors eyeing a possible summer move for the England striker, but Tuchel has insisted now is not the time for any distractions. Asked why Abraham missed out on Saturday, Tuchel replied: “Well it’s just the amount of people that I can nominate for a game. Reaching next term’s Champions League remains the Blues’ benchmark, leaving Tuchel clear about the size of Tuesday’s challenge against Leicester. “Well that didn’t make things boring in the Premier League, that late goal from Alisson!” said Tuchel.
