London, Sep 13: Nicolas Jackson has agreed to sign a contract extension which will keep him at Chelsea till 2033. The 23-year old signed for the Blues in 2023 on an eight-year deal, which was supposed to run till 2031. He has now put pen to paper for a two-year extension, which will see him tied down the club for further nine years.

"The first season for any player or any striker that comes to Chelsea is not easy, but I did okay. I am not very happy with 17 goals because I played the whole season without injuries, but it’s okay. I did well, now I hope to continue and do amazing. I am still in the learning process, learning every day, and trying to improve what I can do, and work on what I cannot do," said Jackson to Chelsea FC's media team.
