Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he believes Nicolas Jackson can come good as Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior.

The Argentine manager stated that Vinicius wasn’t a star player in his first season with Spanish side Real Madrid.

Jackson has netted one goal in six appearances since joining Chelsea from Villarreal and Pochettino sees the performance as fair while comparing it to that of Vinicius.

“Remember, Vinicius arrived and after three seasons or two seasons and a half, he started to perform at Real Madrid. We forget that we are talking about young players,” Pochettino said.

“Of course, you can blame us, blame me, you can talk about tactics, but they need time.”
