Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson is on a list of potential targets at Aston Villa as they look to sign a striker before the deadline, according to reports.
The Blues are looking to bring in a new striker before the transfer deadline but could lose a forward of their own as Aston Villa eye the Senegal international.
Aston Villa have allowed Douglas Luiz and Moussa Diaby to leave for big fees during the transfer window, while Amadou Onana, Ian Maatsen and Jaden Philogene are among those to have arrived.
Aston Villa are open to the idea of taking a new striker in the final days of the transfer window with striker Jackson among the preferred names on their list.
Villa have apparently been following him for over a year and the report adds:
Evaluations are currently underway to understand whether there’s room for concrete negotiations to take place, and a move for the Blues striker achievable, before the window slams shut for another few months.
Roma s Tammy Abraham and Everton s Dominic Calvert-Lewin are also mentioned in the Caught Offside story, while Barcelona s Raphinha is mooted as a potential late winger target.
There could be a possibility that Aston Villa embark on a potential swap deal for Jackson .
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has insisted that Duran is a potential outgoing that we should keep an eye on as Chelsea look to alternatives .
: Chelsea’s interest in Osimhen has always been on a loan, but Osimhen wants a permanent deal. I would also keep an eye on Jhon Duran.
And Romano brought an update on the future of Napoli striker Osimhen earlier on Wednesday, he wrote in his Caught Offside column: I wanted to clarify the situation with Victor Osimhen as it’s another important story for the final days of the window.
Some people have been mentioning Paris Saint-Germain, but the information I have is that the last contact between Osimhen and PSG was in the final week of July that was the last moment that Osimhen, his agents, or anyone from the Napoli board spoke to PSG.

So, for the moment PSG are not working on the deal for Osimhen, that’s the reality, and if it changes I will update you, but for now it’s absolutely not happening. I can guarantee, however, that Chelsea and Al Ahli are both still working on the Osimhen deal. Al Ahli already have an agreement with Napoli for €65m, so that’s okay, but what’s missing is the agreement between Osimhen and the Saudi club.
