Aston Villa Eyes Nicolas Jackson if Watkins Transfers
Aston Villa is preparing to make a move for Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson, contingent upon the sale of Ollie Watkins to Al Hilal. Jackson, who spent the previous season on loan at Bayern Munich, is valued at £65 million by Chelsea.
Al Hilal is currently in negotiations for Watkins and has had at least one bid rejected by Aston Villa. Despite Villa's reluctance to sell, Watkins is reportedly keen on the transfer to Saudi Arabia, and discussions are ongoing.
Additionally, Atletico Madrid has shown interest in Jackson but prefers a loan arrangement, while Chelsea is seeking a permanent transfer for the player. Jackson has been excluded from training by Chelsea's current coach, Xabi Alonso.
