Aston Villa is one of several Premier League clubs interested in Jackson, a 24-year-old Senegal international. Meanwhile, Chelsea is interested in Morgan Rogers, a 22-year-old England international.
According to a journalist, if Aston Villa makes a move for Jackson, Chelsea may respond by making a bid for Rogers. This is because Chelsea retains an interest in Rogers, who had a strong season in 2024-25, scoring 14 goals and providing 13 assists in 54 games.
The journalist notes that any move for Jackson by Aston Villa would likely trigger a bid for Rogers, who is expected to cost over £50 million. This is because Chelsea may not want to keep both Jackson and Rogers, given the presence of other strikers at the club.
