"To get a professional contract is a dream come true and something I have been working towards since I joined the club at the age of 14.

"It couldn't come at a better time having scored a hat-trick in the Youth Cup win at Poole Town."

Abrahams appeared on the bench for the first team in the Checkatrade Trophy encounter at Brighton and could also appear on the subs bench in today's game at home against Blackpool.
