Despite the staggering prize claimed by Chelsea, Aston Villa seems determined to try his luck for Nicolas Jackson. Under contract until June 2033 with the Blues, the 24 -year -old Senegalese striker was closely followed by the Villans, who have already started discussions with the Blues according to The Telegraph. Faced with the difficulty of aligning the amount requested by Chelsea, a loan with purchase option could appear as the only realistic solution to allow Unai Emery to strengthen his attack before the end of the transfer window, and Chelsea not to have an overloaded workforce, already composed of Liam Delap and João Pedro at the post of number 9.
However, Aston Villa is not alone, besides Newcastle or Manchester United who were interested before signing Sesko, Bayern Munich also wishes to attach his services. The Germans have also taken information on Jackson, but a transfer to Bavaria today seems complicated. Aston Villa, for his part, appears ready to play, convinced that the player could quickly win in the Premier League. Open to a departure, the Senegalese remains one of the most attractive options for the Villans, which could well win the bets despite the prohibitive rate set by Chelsea, or € 85 million. Case to follow.
