The 23-year-old says the presence of Jose Mourinho, who he labeled as a serial winner, lured him to join the Giallorossi this summer.
Abraham completed a move to the Rome-based side from his boyhood club Chelsea for a fee around £34 million on a five-year contract.
He has already made an impact in Rome as he provided two assists on his Serie A debut against Fiorentina.
Despite not being the first name on the team sheet in his latter days at Stamford Bridge, Abraham managed to finish the 2021/2022 season as the joint top scorer for the Blues with twelve goals.
The Englishman revealed he spoke with Mourinho before making his decision to join Roma and insists the former Chelsea coach is a winner.
'In the last year at Chelsea, I played less than I hoped for. It was important to talk to Mourinho,' Abraham told a press conference on Friday.
'I talked to Mourinho and Tiago Pinto explained the club's ambition to me.' 'Mourinho is also a winner and has characteristics I see myself in.’
'But I want to say that I'm not only here for Jose, his presence was important but I have always followed Roma. I had the privilege of sharing the dressing room at Chelsea with Emerson and Rudiger. Tony spoke very well about Roma.'
'I must say that since I arrived, the fans have been extraordinary, as have my teammates and this made me feel at home.
Abraham pledged to try and help Roma win the newly created Conference League among other laurels.
'I'm a person who when I arrive in a team, I love to sweat for that shirt and leave my blood,' he added.
'I arrived at Roma not only to score goals, but above all to win trophies and we hope to be able to do so already this year,' he added
'The Conference is a complicated trophy, but we will try.'
