Aston Villa signed Senegal striker Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea in a deal worth a reported club-record £65 million ($87 million) on Friday.

Chelsea striker Jackson is thought to be the preferred option of Unai Emery, if Ollie Watkins leaves the club before the window closes.

Jackson joined Chelsea from Villarreal in a £32m deal in 2023, and has gone on to score 30 goals in 81 appearances.
