Barcelona is one of the clubs that have expressed interest in signing Chelsea striker Nicholas Jackson, and sports director deco plans talk about the loan move.
Information sources with close links to the agent industry have been notified Catch off side Jackson’s future is questionable this summer, and many clubs have shown interest.
While Chelsea is expected to demand around 50 million euros to get Senegal International to go, Barca is currently showing the most interest and would like to discuss loan transactions.
The Catalan giant is a Jackson worshipper and is hoping for a rotation option on the frontlines of upcoming seasons. Aging Robert Lewandowsky is unlikely to play that long, perhaps a week.
Nicholas Jackson Transfer suitor revealed
Sources were also able to confirm that Jackson is interested in both Newcastle United and Aston Villa’s forms from elsewhere in the Premier League.
Meanwhile, AC Milan has also expressed interest in the 24-year-old, but it may have already ended as the saga is considered too expensive for them.
Napoli is another Serie A club considering Jackson as an option, but for now their number one goal has been Darwinnes in Liverpool.
However, Naples’ negotiations with Nunes have proven challenging, so it makes sense to explore alternatives.
Jackson’s Chelsea career is certainly over
It wasn’t the best summer for Jackson, who struggles to impress Chelsea at the Club World Cup.
In addition to that, CFC has signed both Joao Pedro and Liam Delap as new options in advance. This appears to be a clear signal that Jackson is trying to drop the hierarchy.
Interestingly, one source said that Chelsea is “cautious about selling to domestic rivals.”
This could probably give Barcelona a competitive advantage for Jackson’s signature. That means moving abroad, but the loan may give Chelsea the chance to use him again if they show signs of improvement next year.
