Milan contact Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson | OneFootball

Serie A side Milan are in talks with Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson’s entourage over a possible transfer this summer. 

According to a report by TMW, the Rossoneri are exploring the option of adding a striker to their ranks, and it has led them to contact the Senegalese striker’s agent in recent weeks. Currently on loan at Bayern Munich, Jackson has played 30 games for the club this campaign, scoring 10 goals across all competitions so far. 

The Bundesliga champions have already paid €15 million and could activate a €65 million buyout clause at the end of the season. However, they are unlikely to proceed with the option. 

Chelsea are not looking for another deal for the 24-year-old and will let him go on a permanent transfer for a fee of around €60 million. Milan are confident of matching this figure through player exchanges or bonuses plus a sizeable transfer fee.
