According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Nicolas Jackson faces an uncertain future at Chelsea heading into the summer transfer window. Saudi Pro League clubs and teams from the Bundesliga and Serie A are keen on signing the Senegalese international in the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, the former Villarreal attacker’s representatives are exploring a summer departure from Stamford Bridge.
Nicolas Jackson has come leaps and bounds since joining Chelsea from Villarreal in July 2023. The African attacker arrived at the West London club after an excellent 2022/23 campaign with the Yellow Submarine but has blown hot and cold throughout his spell at Stamford Bridge.
However, Jackson’s quality is indubitable, and he has made considerable improvements in the last two years. However, the 24-year-old has endured an injury-riddled 2024/25 campaign and has managed to contribute to only 19 goals in 2,505 minutes of game time across 36 outings in all competitions by finding the back of the net 13 times and providing six assists.
Meanwhile, the Senegalese international faces an uncertain future at Chelsea in the summer transfer window after Chelsea signed Liam Delap from Ipswich Town. In addition, the Blues are scouring the market for another striker, with recent reports linking them with Hugo Ekitike.
Chelsea’s moves for strikers mean Nicolas Jackson may not be at Chelsea beyond the summer transfer window. The former Villarreal attacker’s agents are exploring a summer departure from Stamford Bridge. The player “has some concerns, and his people are actively checking on his options”.
Saudi Pro League clubs are eager to sign Jackson from Chelsea in the summer transfer window. In addition, Serie A outfits are chasing his signature, with Eintracht Frankfurt considering him as a long-term replacement for Hugo Ekitike. So, the 24-year-old versatile attacker has no shortage of suitors pursuing his signature this summer.
With Jackson’s entourage exploring a summer exit from Chelsea, it will not be surprising to see him pushing for a move away from Stamford Bridge in the coming weeks. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for the Senegalese international.
