The Chelsea ownership under Todd Boehly have been concerned with securing long term futures of key players.
Senegal striker Nicolas Jackson has now signed a two-year contract extension to keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2033.
Jackson, who joined from Villarreal in 2023, now extends the eight-year deal he signed initially.
“Chelsea is delighted to announce Nicolas Jackson has signed a two-year contract extension until 2033.
“Nico joined the Blues in late June 2023 and enjoyed an impressive first campaign at Stamford Bridge. He netted 17 goals across all competitions, which included a hat-trick away to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League,” the club said.
Jackson has netted twice in four appearances this season as he looks to do better than an unconvincing maiden season in London.
“I’m feeling very good and I’m very happy to sign a new contract and stay at the club,” he said.
“It feels great the club has confidence in me. I’m working very hard. I’m very happy to extend my contract and stay here for many years.”
Jackson started his professional career at Senegalese team Casa Sport before moving to Spain side Villarreal in 2020.
After scoring 13 goals in 38 appearances in all competitions in 2022-23, that was his breakthrough season as he was included in Senegal’s 2022 World Cup squad.
