Nicolas Jackson and Alejandro Garnacho have emerged as two of the names discussed between Aston Villa and Chelsea as both clubs continue exploring potential transfer opportunities ahead of the new season. While negotiations remain at an early stage, the pair are among several options considered during recent discussions.
Softfootball understands that Aston Villa are exploring the possibility of a double swoop for Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson and Alejandro Garnacho, with both players admired as the club looks to strengthen its attacking options. However, any move for Garnacho faces competition, as the winger continues to prioritise a switch to AS Roma.
Despite Garnacho’s preference for joining the Serie A side, Chelsea and Roma have yet to reach an agreement over the structure of a potential deal. The Italian club are still pushing to find common ground, while Chelsea continue to evaluate their options regarding the talented Argentine.
Jackson’s future also remains uncertain, with growing interest from several clubs as Chelsea assess their squad ahead of the new campaign. Aston Villa are believed to be monitoring developments closely as they look to add quality and depth to Unai Emery’s squad.
With the transfer window still open, negotiations involving both players are expected to continue, while Aston Villa remain attentive to any opportunity that could strengthen their squad before the new season gets underway.
