Aston Villa Eyes Nicolas Jackson If Ollie Watkins Transfers to Al Hilal

Aston Villa plans to pursue Nicolas Jackson if Ollie Watkins is sold to Al Hilal, who have made multiple bids for the striker.

Aston Villa is likely to target Nicolas Jackson if they finalize the sale of Ollie Watkins to Al Hilal. The Saudi Pro League club has expressed interest in Watkins, who is reportedly open to the move.

Watkins, who scored 16 league goals last season and contributed to Villa's Europa League victory, has had at least one bid from Al Hilal rejected, with their initial offer around £38.5 million. Although Villa is reluctant to part with Watkins, negotiations are ongoing.

Jackson, valued at £65 million by Chelsea, is also being pursued by Atletico Madrid, but they prefer a loan arrangement. Chelsea is looking for a permanent transfer following Jackson's loan at Bayern Munich last season. Villa manager Unai Emery has previously worked with Jackson at Villarreal, which could influence the potential transfer.
