“No intensions” – Journalist shares new update on developing Chelsea transfer saga | OneFootball

Nicolas Jackson has no intention of leaving Chelsea “anytime soon” despite links with a move away according to journalist Rahman Osman.

There have been question marks about Jackson’s future following the arrival of Liam Delap for £30m, and the former Ipswich man has made a bright start to his Chelsea career.

Following Jackson’s red card against Flamengo, his second in his last five matches, speculation about his future has gone into overdrive.

Nicolas Jackson has no intention of leaving Chelsea

Jackson endured a difficult last season in which he only managed ten Premier League goals, although he did score in the Conference League final.

Jackson has been linked with both Juventus and Napoli, although it’s thought the Serie A giants won’t be able to afford the 24-year-old.

Chelsea are thought to want more than £50m for Jackson, and it’s been said they aren’t actively looking to sell the Senegal international, but would listen to suitable offers.

Jackson is suspended for the Club World Cup last 16 tie against Benfica, but will return if Chelsea make the quarter finals, and Osman has provided an update.

He took to X.com and said:

“Nicolas Jackson has no intensions of leaving Chelsea anytime soon.”

Liam Delap handed huge opportunity

The absence of Jackson has handed Delap an opportunity to have an early run in the side, and the 22-year-old scored his first goal against ES Tunis.

Delap will likely start against Benfica and Gabby Agbonlahor has backed the England under-21 international to become Chelsea’s first choice striker.

With Jackson also suspended for the Premier League opener against Crystal Palace, there’s a great chance for Delap to take an early lead in the race to be Chelsea’s first choice number nine.
