Senegalese striker Nicolas Jackson will not play again for Chelsea in the English Premier League this season.
The striker started for the Blues in their Week 36 encounter of the ongoing 2024/25 league campaign against Newcastle United on Sunday morning.
In the 34th minute, after a contentious horror tackle, referee John Brooks sent Nicolas Jackson off with a red card after consulting the Video Assistant Referee.
The sending-off means Jackson will miss the two remaining Chelsea matches in the English Premier League.

He will not be part of his team’s squad for the next game against Manchester United at home and the final game of the season against Nottingham Forest.
He will, however, be available for the clash against Real Betis in the final of the UEFA Conference League.
