Jackson Linked With Chelsea Exit As Arsenal Clarify Position On Nwaneri

Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson could be on his way out of Stamford Bridge, following the club’s decision to allow winger Noni Madueke to join Premier League rivals Arsenal.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Ivorian striker may be the next to leave, with Serie A giants AC Milan already making an enquiry.

However, Chelsea’s valuation of the former Villarreal man is currently seen as too high by the Italian side.

Romano also reports that several Premier League clubs have expressed interest in Jackson and have been made aware of his price tag.

Meanwhile, Arsenal has taken a firm stance on keeping young talent Ethan Nwaneri amid growing interest from Chelsea and several Bundesliga sides. According to The Guardian, the Gunners are confident the England U18 star will sign a new deal to remain at the club.

Speculation over Nwaneri’s future grew after he was permitted to hold discussions with other clubs earlier in January, but Mikel Arteta’s side remain optimistic about retaining the highly rated midfielder.
