Tammy Abraham has not asked to made the highest earner at Chelsea.
This season the Blues have moved to tie down a number of their academy stars to new contracts, with Reece James, Mason Mount, Fikayo Tomori, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Billy Gilmour all committing their futures to the club.
As has fellow wonderkid Callum Hudson-Odoi.
The teenager was heavily linked with a move to Bayern Munich last January as well as in the summer transfer window, but agreed a new contract at Stamford Bridge last September which was worth an estimated £180,000-a-week.
And the it's been reported that Abraham is holding out for a similar deal.
Earlier in the month, the Daily Mirror claimed the England international had rejected the club's offer of a new contract as he wants parity with the aforementioned players.
However, that's not the case.
The Telegraph stated that Abraham is not demanding and £180,000-a-week salary and nor has he requested to be the club's highest earner.
This report was uploaded to Instagram by a Chelsea supporter and eventually caught the attention of Abraham who took time out of his busy schedule to issue a response.
A simple four-word message on the social media platform read: "Finally some real news."
One Chelsea player who won't be extending his contract it experienced winger Pedro who has revealed he is to leave the west London outfit when his deal expires at the end of the season.
"I’m terminating my contract, but right now it’s not the most important thing, nor have I stopped to think about it," Pedro told El Larguero on CADENA SER, as quoted by Sport Witness.
"From there on what has to do with my future will come, but right now it’s not the most important thing when you don’t even know when you’re going to train again."
