Last season, the Senegalese international was on loan at Bayern Munich, where he registered 11 goals and 4 assists in 34 appearances. However, the German champions opted not to make the move permanent, returning him to Chelsea. Villa manager Unai Emery is well acquainted with Jackson from their shared time at Villarreal.

The Birmingham side has intensified its efforts to bolster their attack in the last two days. They tabled a £22 million offer for Jean-Philippe Mateta, which was rejected by Crystal Palace. Yesterday, reports also emerged that active negotiations have begun with AC Milan for Rafael Leão.
