The agent of Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson has suggested that he could leave Stamford Bridge within the next 48 hours.
In two seasons at the West Londoners, the Senegal international has contributed 30 goals and 12 assists from 81 matches in all competitions.
However, Enzo Maresca has left Jackson out of his plans for 2025-26 with the club actively looking to cash in on the 24-year-old who has a contract until 2033.
Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Bayern Munich have all been credited with an interest in the former Villarreal man in recent weeks.
Although Chelsea are yet to receive their asking price, a transfer of some kind is inevitable given the Blues' need to generate funds for more additions.

Jackson agent Kamara reveals three potential destinations
As quoted on the X account of Foot Mercato, a statement has been released by Jackson's agent Diomansy Kamara, publicly acknowledging that the player is on his way out of Chelsea.
Furthermore, Kamara suggests that a transfer to a club competing in the Bundesliga, Serie A or Premier League could materialise within the next two days.
Kamara said: "30 goals in two seasons, without a single penalty. Highs, lows...but a page is turning at the Blues.
"Always grateful for yesterday, but already looking toward tomorrow, with optimism. Germany, Italy, England: the options are numerous, the decision is imminent.
"Thank you for the support, we see your messages...Nicolas Jackson, transfer expected within 48 hours, in shaa Allah..."

What options could Chelsea receive for Jackson?
With Chelsea said to value Jackson anywhere between £60m and £80m, it means that any interested club may need to get creative.
In the case of Bayern Munich, who are allegedly favourites for his signature, a loan agreement with an obligation to buy is their most realistic way of signing Jackson.
The same applies to Aston Villa, even though the West Midlands club may not be able to match Bayern when it comes to an eventual fee.
Newcastle are currently waiting to see if Alexander Isak will remain at St James' Park, but they will be in the market for two strikers if the Sweden international joins Liverpool for what would likely be a British-record fee.
