Chelsea are ready to let go of their striker Nicolas Jackson and have offered him to Newcastle United, Manchester United, and AC Milan.
Jackson, who is 24 years old, has been leading Chelsea’s attack for the past two seasons. But now, his playing time might reduce because the club just brought in two new forwards — Liam Delap and Joao Pedro.
Because of this, Chelsea are open to selling Jackson for around £80 million. They could also agree to a loan deal, but only if the club promises to buy him later.
Even though Jackson has been linked with both Newcastle and Man United, neither team is really pushing to sign him right now. That’s because both clubs are focused on another striker — Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig.
Newcastle have already made a big offer for Sesko — over £70 million with add-ons — and want an answer within 48 hours. If they get Sesko, they might even sell their current striker, Alexander Isak.
Man United are also trying to get Sesko and recently sent some of their staff to Germany to talk about the deal.
So for now, Jackson’s future depends on what happens with Sesko. If Sesko goes to either Newcastle or Man United, then Jackson might get a better chance of moving. AC Milan have also been contacted about signing Jackson, and more clubs
