Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson will not be involved in the club’s pre-season friendly against Bayer Leverkusen at Stamford Bridge, amid reports that he has trained alone after asking to explore a transfer away.
The 24-year-old made 37 appearances across all competitions last season, scoring 13 goals, but has been linked with multiple clubs this summer following the arrivals of Liam Delap and João Pedro, both of whom impressed at the Club World Cup.
