Chelsea are planning to make some key changes in their attacking unit. One of their striker is finding his future uncertain at West London. He is being looked upon by Juventus and Napoli.
Chelsea have signed Liam Delap as a new striker. They paid £30 million to sign the 22 year old from Ipswich Town. But, they are unwilling to end the striker pursuit here. The Blues are keen to add another striker to their squad this summer.
This has raised doubts about the future of Nicolas Jackson. The 24 year old is no longer untouchable. On the other hand, Marc Guiu is said to depart on loan. The Spanish star is still very young and the Blues want him to improve by playing regularly.
Nicolas Jackson has so far scored 30 goals and picked 12 assists for Chelsea in 80 games. But, this is way below the expectations they had from him. In addition, he has been injury prone due to which the West London giants can part ways with him.
Juventus & Napoli both showing interest in Nicolas Jackson
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Jackson is being looked upon by both Juventus and Napoli. As of now, the Old Lady are leading the race ahed of Serie A champions. The report also adds that the Blues are now open to sell Jackson if a right offer comes thier way.
Juventus are set to part ways with Dusan Vlahovic. Hence, a new striker will be top priority for them. On the other hand, Napoli do have other options. They have Nunez and Lucca as top targets and hence Juve are handed lead in the race for Nicolas Jackson.
Chelsea are planning to sign a wide forward now. They have Hugo Ekitike and Joao Pedro as top targets. These players are able to play as striker along with winger. Ekitike is made available for €100 million whereas Pedro is expected to cost around €70 million.
