Deals already agreed: Chelsea to sell Jackson, replacement signed
"Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson is expected to be sold at the end of this season, with the signing of Emanuel Emegha already in place. The Blues have loaned Jackson out to Bayern Munich for this season, and it's not been the easiest start to life at the Allianz Arena for the Senegal international. Bayern have the option to make Jackson's move permanent, but it remains to be seen if they'll take it, though Chelsea will likely sell him anyway."
"It will be interesting to see Emegha at Chelsea next season as he looks like he already has the potential to come in and be Enzo Maresca's first choice straight away. It makes sense that Jackson isn't part of Chelsea's plans after some underwhelming form, while Joao Pedro and Liam Delap haven't exactly set the world alight either. If you regularly use sites like Betway you might be tempted to check out how likely it is that Emegha ends next season as Chelsea's top scorer, because he's certainly making waves with Strasbourg in Ligue 1 this season."
"The 22-year-old Netherlands international has more goals than either Pedro or Delap already this season, with seven in ten games in all competitions. By contrast, Pedro has four and Delap has one, so a combined total of five. It's early days for them with CFC, but if they carry on like this there seems little reason for the club to keep them around."
Nicolas Jackson has been loaned to Bayern Munich and is expected to be sold at the end of the season, with Bayern holding an option to make the move permanent. Chelsea have already agreed the signing of 22-year-old Emanuel Emegha from Strasbourg as a planned replacement. Emegha has scored seven goals in ten games across all competitions this season, outscoring Joao Pedro and Liam Delap combined. Joao Pedro and Liam Delap have managed five goals between them, increasing pressure on Chelsea to refresh their striking options. The BlueCo link with Strasbourg facilitated evaluation before committing to Emegha.
