Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has been honored with the prestigious title of Best Senegalese Player Playing Abroad for the 2023/2024 season.

According to a report by Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Blues striker was recognized for his performances at Chelsea in the 2023/24 season.

Jackson secured the top spot in the voting with an impressive 203 votes and received the coveted title.

Kalidou Koulibaly was close behind with 167 votes, followed by Chérif Ndiaye with 47 votes.

The recognition follows an outstanding season for Jackson at Chelsea.

Despite a shaky start at Chelsea and his move to the team in the 2023 summer transfer window, Jackson has quickly established himself as a key player and prolific goalscorer.

With 5 goals and 3 assists in his Chelsea games this season, Jackson has made a significant impact.

His goal total is second only to Cole Palmer, who leads the team with 6 goals.

Last season, Jackson enjoyed an even more productive season, scoring 17 goals and providing 6 assists in 44 games for the Blues.

The 22-year-old has scored two goals in two games, underlining his immediate influence on the KPL record champions

This award cements Jackson's reputation as one of the most talented Senegalese players on the international stage.

Jackson's Chelsea are in action in his absence this evening with a Conference League clash against Panathinaikos.
