BBC Sport reveal transfer fee Chelsea are hoping to get for Jackson amid differing reports | OneFootball

Chelsea hope to receive at least double what they paid Villarreal for Nicolas Jackson in 2023 according to reports.

Jackson has seen his future questioned following the arrival of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro this summer, with the Brazilian in particular making an instant impact.

Pedro scored again in the 2-0 win against Bayer Leverkusen on Friday night, a game Jackson was left out of the squad for.

Chelsea hoping to double their money on Nicolas Jackson

The expectation is Jackson leaves this summer, and the 24-year-old is attracting interest from a number of clubs in both the Premier League and Europe.

Newcastle are said to have the Senegalese at the top of their list, whilst Italian giants Juventus and AC Milan are both said to be keen.

Chelsea are believed to have set their asking price at £80m, but reportedly they are looking to get a similar price for Jackson as what they got for Noni Madueke.

There seems to be some discrepancies when it comes to price, and BBC Sport have reported the Blues are hoping to at least double the £32m they paid for Jackson two years ago.

The report adds the club believe Jackson is worth more than the £52m paid for Madueke due to his goal and assist stats being better.

Jackson managed just ten league goals in a disappointing campaign last season, and where ever he’s playing his football next season he’ll be desperate to improve that.

Chelsea still looking to sell Nkunku

Jackson isn’t the only forward the Blues are looking to move on before the end of the window, and they are still trying to find a new club for Christopher Nkunku.

Nkunku is expected to leave this summer, but as of yet the Blues are yet to receive any offers for the France international.
