As performers at the top of their chosen profession, most are capable of holding their own when it comes to fancy footwork and keepy-uppy wizardry.
A couple of England’s Young Lions have been showcasing their talents during a recent U-21 training session, with Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham and Nathan Redmond confident enough to let their efforts by captured on camera.

Abraham, who is making quite a name for himself during a productive loan spell at Bristol City, kicks things off, and doesn’t quite manage to pull off an overhead flick as intended.
Southampton winger Redmond then gets in on the act, and all goes to plan until he attempts one “around the world” too many.
Still, the skills are clearly there and the performances of Abraham and Redmond for club and country this season mean the odd mistake can be forgiven.
