Chelsea Player Nicolas Jackson Suffers ‘Serious’ Ankle Sprain on Senegal Duty
The season may be over, but the injury bug seems to have hit Chelsea once again, this time affecting Nicolas Jackson. The player sustained an ankle sprain during Senegal’s recent 1-1 draw against DR Congo. According to reports from Senegal, the injury is being deemed as “serious”, raising concerns about the extent of the damage.
Unfortunately, this means that Jackson will be forced to sit out Senegal’s upcoming match against Mauritania on Sunday. Ankle sprains, especially those classified as serious, can often result in weeks or even months of recovery time. With preparations for the new season set to begin in just over a month, there is uncertainty surrounding Jackson’s availability for the start of the season.
Chelsea has been no stranger to injury setbacks in recent years, and the news of Jackson’s sprain adds to the list of sidelined players. As the team looks ahead to the upcoming season, the hope is that Jackson can make a swift recovery and return to full fitness in time for the new campaign.
We wish Nicolas Jackson a speedy recovery and hope to see him back on the pitch soon. Stay tuned for further updates on his condition as he undergoes treatment for his ankle sprain.
