Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson’s form this season

Chelsea signed Nicolas Jackson from Villarreal for 35 million Euros in the summer. The Senegalese striker has been inconsistent since joining the club. Despite his raw talent, Jackson’s finishing has been questionable. The 22-year-old has so far scored 13 goals and has provided five assists in 39 appearances across competitions.

Jackson also missed a catalog of chances against Arsenal, despite finding himself in good positions on multiple occasions. However, the Senegalese scored a hat-trick when Chelsea played Tottenham earlier in the season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
