Barcelona are keeping a close eye on the Premier League.
They are watching one London club in particular and with good reason.
Chelsea’s squad has seen major changes this summer.
Two new attackers have already arrived, Joao Pedro and Liam Delap.
The competition is intense, and not every forward will keep his spot.
At Camp Nou, the timing could not be better.
Barcelona are searching for low-cost options to strengthen their attack.
Their financial situation is still tight, so permanent deals are difficult. But a loan deal could work.
They have missed out on signing Nico Williams and now, they might miss out on signing Luis Diaz as well.
The Colombian is reportedly heading to Bayern Munich as he has agreed personal terms with the German club.
Signing Marcus Rashford from Manchester United will not be a cheap option as well.
Also, their coaching staff want a striker with pace, strength, and flexibility.
They need someone who can fit into different systems.
So, they are not just looking for a name.
They want a player who can bring something fresh.
One name has caught their attention. He is quick, strong and only 24 years old.
And he has experience in one of Europe’s toughest leagues.
According to a Spanish outlet, Nicolas Jackson could be pushed down the pecking order at Chelsea.
With Joao Pedro and Liam Delap now in the squad, his minutes might be limited.
Chelsea may consider sending him out on loan to keep him active.
Barcelona see this as a golden chance.
A loan would not hurt their budget, and it would give Hansi Flick a new weapon in attack.
No formal talks have started yet. But Barça are serious about signing Nicolas Jackson on loan.
If all sides agree, the Senegalese striker might be heading to Spain very soon.
This Nicolas Jackson to Barcelona move could turn out to be one of the smartest moves of the summer.
