Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has attracted interest from Atletico Madrid, but the Blues insist on keeping the 22-year-old. Despite being reportedly unsettled by manager Mauricio Pochettino’s end-of-season departure, Chelsea are ready to reject any offers for Jackson.

After a slow start at Stamford Bridge, Jackson concluded his debut Premier League season with 14 goals in 34 games. Chelsea reportedly views him as a key asset moving forward and is not willing to entertain any bids from Atletico Madrid or other clubs.

Jackson was one of several players to take to social media to thank Pochettino, who was very popular with the squad. TalkSPORT’s chief football correspondent Alex Crook has reported that Jackson may consider his future following Pochettino’s departure.
“I’m told the decision to part company with Mauricio Pochettino didn’t go down well with all Chelsea players,” he told talkSPORT. “Nicolas Jackson in particular, who you can’t argue improved under Poch’s coaching last season.
“He is not happy about the managerial change and possibly is looking for a move away. There is some interest from Atletico Madrid.”
