Does Jackson have a Chelsea future?

In the second part of a special Q&A, Chelsea reporter Nizaar Kinsella explains the club's stance on signing a new goalscorer and Nicolas Jackson's future.

Moses asked: Do you think Chelsea are going to sign a striker this summer?

Nizaar: Yes and no. Chelsea have already signed Emanuel Emegha from Strasbourg and the initial plan was for him to be involved with the first team.

However, it remains to be seen who out of Liam Delap and Nicolas Jackson will feature as deputies to main striker Joao Pedro next season, or be sold or sent out on loan. With no European football to contend with, carrying three specialist strikers may not be ideal.

As a result, beyond those options, another centre-forward signing is not expected. However, Chelsea are considering adding a goal-scoring winger or a versatile attacker.

Tim asked: Do you think giving Nicolas Jackson another chance might spur Cole Palmer on? His best two seasons were when he was playing with Jackson.

Nizaar: The view from Stamford Bridge is that Nicolas Jackson still has a chance of working his way back into the side, although that would likely require Xabi Alonso to select him ahead of Emanuel Emegha and Liam Delap.

Jackson had a strong understanding with Cole Palmer under Mauricio Pochettino and continued to show that link in Enzo Maresca's first season.

However, if pushed to make a prediction, it is still expected that Jackson could leave Chelsea this summer.
