Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, has confirmed that Nicolas Jackson is set to sign a new contract with the Premier League club.
Jackson has started the current season on a decent note.
The Senegal striker opened the scoring in their 6-2 win at Wolves and netted the only goal as they drew 1-1 with Crystal Palace on Sunday.
After the match at Stamford Bridge, Maresca revealed Jackson is on the brink of agreeing to an extension.
“The only thing I know is he’s signing a new contract – I don’t know how many years,” Maresca told reporters.
“I’m very happy. Nicolas is doing a fantastic job with us. He scored again. He had more chances but we’re happy with him.”
