Nicolas Jackson, who recently joined Chelsea, has made an immediate effect.

The club’s preseason trip of the United States this summer was loaded with inspiring stories, but Nicolas Jackson’s influence sticks out.

Chelsea’s finest player in these valuable preseason friendlies has been the 22-year-old striker.

His performance this season has undoubtedly been good enough to secure him a starting spot when the Premier League season begins later this month against Liverpool.

Jackson, who Chelsea paid £32 million (Evening Standard) to sign from Villarreal this summer, appears to have settled in swiftly.

The center striker has been spectacular in the club’s five exhibition games in the United States, delivering both goals and assists.

It’s no secret that the Blues have struggled to locate а dependable No. 9, but the general feeling among fans is that we mау hаvе discovered the mаn for the job.

When Jackson makes his squad debut in a competitive game, he will have to prove himself once more. The preseason indicators, on the other hand, are pretty impressive.

Even though Jackson didn’t score in Thursday’s 1-1 tie with Borussia Dortmund, his performance exemplified why the fans are growing fond of him.

The forward from Senegal has a beautiful touch. He also possesses incredible speed and rarely allows a defender time with the ball.

According to Paul Merson (Sportskeeda), Jackson is “very lively and direct” and is prepared to tear apart the Premier League.

When the 2023–24 season officially begins and he is playing up front for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, the pressure will be on in a whole new way.

But all signs lead to the young, ambitious striker having a successful season.

We anticipate that players like Ian Maatsen, Malo Gusto, and Mykhailo Mudryk will leave a lasting impression on Chelsea’s head coach throughout the preseason. But I can only imagine how happy Pochettino is when he takes a look at Jackson.
