Chelsea star believes Jackson is good enough to win Ballon d’Or in the future

• Kalidou Koulibaly believes Nicolas Jackson has a shot at winning the Ballon d’Or in the future if he can live up to his potential.
• Jackson joined from Villarreal for £32m and scored 14 goals in his first Premier League season.
• The 23-year-old has scored six goals this season and is in contention to add to his tally when Chelsea travel to Manchester United.

Former Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly believes Nicolas Jackson has a shot at winning the Ballon d’Or in the future if he can live up to his potential.

“I hope he continues to score goals. We know that the life of a striker depends on scoring goals and Nicolas is no different,” Koulibaly

“He has a good attitude and for me he will become a Senegal legend, like Sadio Mane. I always tell him he will follow in Mane’s footsteps.”

“I hope he becomes the best player in Africa and why not the best in the world? He has the ability, so it’s all up to him.”

“Nicolas has to believe he’s good, that’s ยูฟ่าเบท https://ufabet999.app the most important thing. Every player who wins the Ballon d’Or believes they can do it, so we have to put that in Nicolas’ head to build self-belief.”

“Of course I’m not telling him to be selfish and ignore his teammates, but he has to think about success and if you put that image in your head, he can achieve it and that’s what I tell him all the time.”

Jackson joined from Villarreal for £32million but has criticise for squandering chances despite scoring 14 Premier League goals last season.

The 23-year-old has scored six goals this season and is in contention to continue his fine form for Chelsea, who travel to Manchester United on Sunday.
