His first appearance in the Football League came as a substitute during Orient’s 4–0 triumph over Newport County on 4 March 2017.

On 31 July 2017, Abrahams completed a transfer to Norwich City for an undisclosed amount.
He returned to Leyton Orient on loan for the duration of the 2017–18 National League season; however, this loan spell concluded on 1 September 2017 without him making any appearances.
In July 2018, Abrahams secured a loan move to League Two outfit Exeter City until the end of that season.

On 12 November 2019, Abrahams achieved a hat-trick in Newport's remarkable 7–4 victory over Cheltenham Town in the EFL Trophy. His performances earned him Newport County's Young Player of the Year award for the 2019–20 season in July 2020. On 5 September 2020, Abrahams scored both goals in Newport's 2–0 EFL Cup win over Championship side Swansea City. He continued his impressive EFL Cup form by converting a penalty in a 3–1 second round victory against Championship opponents Watford on 22 September and scoring in a third round 1–1 draw with Premier League club Newcastle United, which Newport eventually lost on penalties. On 1 February 2021, Abrahams returned to Leyton Orient on loan for the rest of that season.
