Why Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson has agreed contract extension

The Senegal international joined Chelsea from Villarreal last summer

Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson has agreed to a contract extension that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2033, according to The Athletic.

The 23-year-old Senegal international joined Chelsea from Villarreal last summer and enjoyed a successful debut season, scoring 17 goals.

Nicolas Jackson has started the current campaign strong, with a goal and an assist ahead of today’s match against Crystal Palace.

He is a central figure in Chelsea’s attacking setup under manager Enzo Maresca, alongside key players like Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix.

Young talents Marc Guiu and Deivid Washington are also seen as important future prospects within this attacking core.

The extension reflects Jackson’s impressive progress over the past year, with his new contract – including an option for an additional extension—securing his future with the club for the next nine years.

This contract renewal follows Chelsea’s recent announcement of a similar extension for Cole Palmer, who is now committed to the club until June 2033.

Chelsea have had a mixed start to their Premier League campaign, winning one and losing one of their opening matches.
