Kalidou Koulibaly, the captain of Senegal, expressed his confidence in Nicolas Jackson. “ Nicolas Jackson can win the Ballon d’Or. He must believe in himself to reach this level“, he said in a recent statement. According to him, the Chelsea striker not only has the talent, but also the right attitude and personality to succeed.
Koulibaly compares Jackson to Sadio Mané, a legend of Senegalese football:
“For me, he will become the story of Senegal, just like Mané did. I always tell him that he must follow Mané’s example.”
Jackson continues to show his abilities on the field. This season, he has scored 6 goals and provided 3 assists in 9 Premier League matches. With his potential, he has all the cards in hand to write his own history and make Senegal shine on the world level.
