Chelsea transfer stance revealed as Juventus and Napoli explore Jackson deal | OneFootball

Sky Sport Italia reports that Chelsea are considering selling Nicolas Jackson, so Juventus and Napoli have already opened preliminary talks with his entourage.

Senegal international Jackson could leave Chelsea this summer.

As reported by Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, the Chelsea forward is ‘no longer untouchable’ as the Blues are considering a future without the 24-year-old.

According to the report, Juventus have already held talks to explore a possible move for the ex-Villarreal star.

Jackson switched the Yellow Submarine for Chelsea in 2023 for €37m and has scored 30 goals in 80 matches with the Blues.

Jackson was introduced as a substitute during Chelsea’s 3-1 loss to Flamengo on Friday, but received a straight red card just four minutes after his introduction.

Juventus are looking for a new centre-forward but aim to sell Dusan Vlahovic first.

Napoli, on the other hand, have prioritised Lorenzo Lucca and mostly Darwin Nunez, but they still gathered information about Jackson through the striker’s entourage.

Football Italia reported earlier this week that the Partenopei were willing to bid more than €40m for Nunez, their current priority target in attack.
