Chelsea FC has set a high price for the sale of their Senegalese striker Nicolas Jackson during the current summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding the player's future with the team.

The British newspaper "Daily Mail" reported that Chelsea's management will not allow Jackson to leave for less than £100 million, despite the signing of attacking duo Liam Delap and João Pedro this summer.

The newspaper clarified that the club deliberately sets this high price to complicate any negotiations for the sale of the 24-year-old player.

This comes at a time when Italian club AC Milan has expressed interest in signing Jackson to bolster their attack, with the possibility of using the player's desire to leave as leverage to reduce the required amount.

It is worth mentioning that Jackson joined Chelsea in the summer of 2023 from Villarreal for €37 million, and his current contract with the London club runs until 2033.
