London, England – Aston Villa dey eye Chelsea striker, Nicolas Jackson, as dem try find way to bring am to their side this season. The 24-year-old striker don play under Villa head coach, Unai Emery, when e dey for Villarreal, so na him wan to return to familiar ground. But, the wahala be say, Jackson don tell Chelsea say him wan consider im options for this transfer window.
Last month, Chelsea don sign some fresh legs including Joao Pedro and Liam Delap, no be small chukwudi o. With all this new signings, e shock say Jackson no dey for the squad wey face Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan in friendly matches. Na im serve the last game of im suspension for Chelsea first match against Crystal Palace. No be easy journey for di striker, as e don struggle to find him footing.
For last season alone, Jackson manage score 13 goals from 37 games across all competitions. Na so e join Chelsea wey don see him dey score 17 goals in 44 appearances for di club di first year. But with di new strikers collecting playing time, im dey feel like say e fit dey out of place wey no dey help am.
E be like say Chelsea wan sell some players dis summer, with nine more players expect to boot camp sharp-sharp. Manchester United dey eye Alejandro Garnacho and RB Leipzig’s Xavi Simons as dem top targets to bolster dia attacking options. And as if that na enough, dem also dey plan to sell Renato Veiga to Villarreal for about £26 million. No be small business dem dey do for Chelsea o!
As things dey run now, up to six clubs dey hunt for Jackson, and Chelsea dey look forward to big offers when dem figure out Alexander Isak future for Newcastle. Aston Villa dey interested, but how dem go afford di £60 million wey Chelsea go talk? Jackson’s value go depend on how di market dey set for strikers for Premier League.
You self fit wonder wetin dey sup wit some other players wey dem dey regard for transfer. Fulham dey eye Raheem Sterling but e no look like say agreement go land anytime soon. Sterling dey train with di non-first team as e dey prepare to leave after im loan spell for Arsenal.
Dis transfer window no be small gist, as dem get plenty names flying around. Tottenham dey pack dem hunting for Monaco’s Maghnes Akliouche while Crystal Palace dey try secure Southampton winger, Tyler Dibling, to replace Eberechi Eze wey dey run go Tottenham. Na true wahala, but no be so e be for all di hustlers dem!
