Chelsea summer signing tip to impress many

Former Arsenal star, Paul Merson has tipped Chelsea summer signing Nicolas Jackson to shine at the club next season.

Merson, who believes Jackson will surprise many, said the forward doesn’t mess about, as he added that the Senegal international is very lively and direct.

Jackson moved to Stamford Bridge from Villarreal in this summer transfer window.

“Nicolas Jackson looks like a great player. He is very lively and direct, and he doesn’t mess about. He can score a goal and make a goal as well.

“He is linked up very well with Mudryk so far, and both of them have been very impressive in pre-season.

“I have been very surprised with Nicolas Jackson so far. I know it is only pre-season, but what I have seen has been ample. He is a handful, and I’d definitely say that he is going to surprise people this season,” he said.
