The Senegal international arrived at Stamford Bridge in June 2023 from Spanish club Villarreal.

Jackson was part of the Chelsea squads that won the UEFA Conference League and FIFA Club World Cup trophies. He netted 13 goals during that campaign, including one in the Wroclaw showpiece against Real Betis.

The 25-year-old featured for the Blues under Xabi Alonso in pre-season, but now heads to Villa Park and brings an end to his time at Stamford Bridge.

We thank Nico for his efforts during his time at the club and wish him well for the future.
