Nicolas Jackson’s strong Aston Villa start earns praise from agent

Nicolas Jackson’s impressive beginning at Aston Villa has been welcomed by his representative, Stanislas Denise, after the Senegal international made a significant impact following his move to the club in last summer’s transfer window.

The former Chelsea striker enjoyed an outstanding October, scoring four goals in four Premier League appearances. His form earned him the league’s Player of the Month award.

Jackson was also recognised by supporters, finishing ahead of Bart Verbruggen, Jan Paul van Hecke, Evanilson and Ezri Konsa in the fans’ vote.

The 25-year-old has now scored nine goals in 14 appearances in all competitions for Aston Villa, underlining the success of his adaptation to the Villans.

Speaking to Maghreb-Foot, Denise, who is director of events and brand activation at Epic Sport, expressed his satisfaction with Jackson’s performances since the transfer.

The representative is also optimistic about the striker’s prospects with Senegal, who are managed by Patrick Vieira. Jackson’s current form has created a positive platform for his continued development, with the forward appearing to have found an environment that suits him.

Jackson is contracted to Aston Villa until 30 June 2031. His estimated market value is 45 million euros.

Senegal will soon play their fourth-round qualifying match for CAN 2027 against Sudan.
