AC Milan have identified Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson as a primary summer target

Nicolas Jackson moved to the Bundesliga to show Chelsea what they’re missing out on, but it has had quite the opposite effect on his career.

The Senegalese striker has failed to trigger the mandatory 25-game appearance clause required for a permanent £56 million transfer, so he will return to Stamford Bridge.

Bayern are unlikely to pursue a separate deal, meaning Jackson will return this June.

Chelsea already have Emanuel Emegha making his way to the club in the summer, meaning that Jackson could potentially be a fourth choice depending on what happens with Liam Delap.

A report from Corriere dello Sport claims that Jackson will return to Chelsea to leave for other shores more pleasing to him, suggesting that he doesn’t want to be at Stamford Bridge.

AC Milan could try and negotiate to try to snatch him on loan with a ransom at important figures if Chelsea sees fit.
