It’s now news that Chelsea are keen on signing another striker.
Chelsea was linked with a move for RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko, but that didn’t work out.
Chelsea are now considering Jhon Duran and Samu Omorodion as potential signings.
What does this mean for Nicolas Jackson?
According to The Athletic’s Liam Twomey, Chelsea have no plans to sell Jackson or even to relegate him to a backup role.
Chelsea are planning to retain Nicolas Jackson while pursuing another young striker who is physically larger, akin to Armando Broja, who is expected to leave.
This approach indicates that the club values Jackson but wants to bolster their attacking options with a more physically imposing player.
Nicolas Jackson scored 17 goals in his debut season for Chelsea, with 14 coming in the Premier League.
