Nico Jackson has matched Mo Salah’s impressive goal tally, showcasing his remarkable talent in the Premier League. He has scored more goals than Bukayo Saka and Marcus Rashford combined, further highlighting his rising status.
Nicolas Jackson has been making headlines with his remarkable performances in the 2024/25 Premier League season, demonstrating his scoring prowess for Chelsea. The young striker has found the back of the net in consecutive matches, with his latest goal coming in a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace. Not only did he score, but he also captivated fans with a striking celebration following his goal.
Since joining Chelsea at the start of the 2023/24 season, Jackson has tallied an impressive 16 goals from open play in the Premier League. This achievement places him on par with Liverpool’s star forward, Mo Salah, who has also scored 16 non-penalty goals in the same timeframe.
What makes Jackson’s feat even more noteworthy is that his 16 non-penalty goals equal the combined total of two other prominent Premier League players—Bukayo Saka of Arsenal and Marcus Rashford of Manchester United—over the same period.
Jackson’s outstanding contributions on the field have not gone unnoticed, as he has been rewarded with a new contract. This news was confirmed by Enzo Maresca following Chelsea’s most recent match, solidifying Jackson’s place as a key player for the club moving forward.
