Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson is expected to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, with the club open to offers between £70m and £100m.
Nicolas Jackson’s future at Chelsea is increasingly uncertain, with the 24-year-old striker facing a potential exit from Stamford Bridge. Despite having eight years remaining on his contract, Chelsea are open to offers for Jackson, valuing him between £70m and £100m.
The Senegalese striker’s situation has become more precarious following the arrivals of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro, who impressed during Chelsea’s Club World Cup-winning run.
The competition for places in Chelsea’s attacking lineup has intensified, pushing Jackson down the pecking order. This development, combined with his on-field struggles and disciplinary lapses, has raised questions about his long-term prospects at the club.
Several top clubs have expressed interest in signing Jackson, including Premier League rivals Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Aston Villa. AC Milan and Napoli have also made approaches, but Jackson has reportedly rejected these moves, signaling a preference to remain in England.
Despite publicly insisting that his focus remains on Chelsea, Jackson acknowledges the uncertainty surrounding his future. In a recent interview, he stated, “The future belongs to God. If there are any changes, you’ll know. For now, I’m focused on my preparation.”
However, sources close to the player suggest that his frustration is growing due to the persistent links to a move away from West London.
Chelsea’s pursuit of other attacking reinforcements has further increased the likelihood of Jackson’s departure. The club’s willingness to listen to offers for the striker indicates that they are prepared to let him go if the right deal comes in.
As Jackson and his teammates resumed training ahead of their penultimate pre-season encounter against Bayer Leverkusen, the question on everyone’s mind is: What does the future hold for the young striker? Will he stay at Chelsea and fight for his place, or will he move to a new club in search of regular playing time?
