The club need to replace Callum Wilson after he left upon the expiration of his contract, regardless of what happens with Alexander Isak. Wilson has now signed for West Ham. <\/p>\n
Isak wants to leave Newcastle this summer<\/a> amid interest from Liverpool, but the club currently look unlikely to sell him if they cannot sign a replacement.\u00a0<\/p>\n Jackson is of interest at St James\u2019 Park<\/a>, with the recruitment team having to work down their list of targets. Joao Pedro and Liam Delap were both targeted but eventually joined the Blues, while Hugo Ekitike moved to Liverpool and Benjamin Sesko looks set for Manchester United.\u00a0<\/p>\n Now, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed the latest on Jackson\u2019s situation at Stamford Bridge.\u00a0<\/p>\n With Pedro and Delap through the door in west London, Maresca has plenty of options on his hands. <\/p>\n As such, Jackson could be allowed to leave this summer. <\/p>\n On Thursday, Maresca confirmed that \u201canything can happen\u201d with the forward. \u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWhen the transfer window is open unfortunately anything can happen, this also involves Nico\u2019s situation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Maresca on Jackson’s future: “When the transfer window is open unfortunately anything can happen, this also involves Nico\u2019s situation.”<\/p>\n \u2014 Nizaar Kinsella (@NizaarKinsella) August 7, 2025<\/a> <\/p>\n View Tweet<\/p>\n How much Chelsea want for Nicolas Jackson <\/p>\n Sources have told Geordie Boot Boys that Chelsea value Jackson at \u00a380million<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n That would smash Newcastle\u2019s transfer record<\/a>, which currently stands at the \u00a363million paid for Isak in the summer of 2022. \u00a0<\/p>\n Clearly, that is a huge price tag. Still, Newcastle<\/a> were prepared to pay big money for Ekitike and Sesko this summer, so certainly appear ready to spend big in their pursuit of a new forward. \u00a0<\/p>\n It is currently not known whether Newcastle view Jackson as a replacement for Wilson or Isak. <\/p>\n Jackson scored ten Premier League<\/a> goals last season in 28 starts under Maresca.\u00a0<\/p>\n ![\"Nicolas](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2181344302-1024x682.jpg\")
