Nicolas Jackson, the new signing of Liam Deap and the Chelsea striker, Nicolas Jackson, produced striking assists, but were not in the field together, since his team opened his campaign of the FIFA 2025 Club World Cup with a 2-0 victory coast won over Los Angeles FC in Atlanta.
Speaking later, Delap said he wants to “prosper in the competition” to be an initial front center in the club, after whipping in a cross 15 minutes after coming to Enzo Fernández to score the second from Chelsea.
Chelsea has repeatedly related to the former African footballer of the year and Victor Osimhen of the player of the year of Series A, who scored better in Turkiye last season in Galatasaray from Napoli.
After a brilliant start for your new club, could youth England International Deap be the right option for the lowest scorers of the first five of the Premier League last season?

“It’s a really happy feeling,” said Deap, 22, Channel 5, reflecting on his shocking part of the MLS team after replacing Jackson in the 64th minute at the Mercedes-Benz stadium.
“I am very excited to be here, so playing my first game and contributing is a good feeling. They have received me very well.
“I have only had some sessions here, but I can’t wait even more. It is always healthy to have competition. It is football and this is an incredible club, so it will be difficult. You have to prosper in the competition.”
Although Ipswich threatened to remain in the Premier League in 2024/25, DELAP contributed 12 impressive goals and three assists in its first season in the highest category, persuading Chelsea to activate its release clause in an agreement until 2031.
“The number nine in Chelsea is a big shirt to fill, but I’m probably thinking ‘Do you know what? This is easy,” said Newcastle’s forward Callum Wilson to the station.
“Many players avoid the number nine shirt due to the story. He has not succeeded notoriously, but he has assumed it and looks like a young man who is really ready to try. He will do it.
Both have an assistance each, so it puts something in the manager’s mind. Delap has arrived as a substitute and has still done, so the manager knows that he can trust him.
“He will take time, but that will make his confidence in the world of good. For (manager) Enzo (Maresca), it’s about how the ball supplies the front players.
“The phases of the game, the construction of the back, having backups and centers that can play through the lines is what will give Cole Palmer time. He gets the ball and gives the strikers the opportunities to go and bloom.”
The legend of Chelsea John Obi Mikel sees promise in Deap, but believes that the 26 -year -old talisman, was the arrival of the first choice of supporters.
“We needed someone to enter and end those opportunities,” said the former midfielder, who won each important national trophy at least once and the Europa League and Champions League during his time at Stamford Bridge between 2006 and 2017.
“It was not the guy that fans wanted: fans wanted Victor Osimhen to come to the football club, but the club decided to go with Deap.”
“He is young, he will improve and improve. With luck, he starts and then silence those skeptics. I wish him the best; I hope he succeeds.
“According to the races I saw today behind the defenders and that assistance, he can be the guy who will end those possibilities.”
Jackson joined Chelsea in an eight -year contract for more than £ 30.1 million in 2023, scoring 17 goals in all competitions in his first season and 13 in his second, as well as a total of six assists.
Against LAFC, the 23 -year -old created Noni Madueke skillfully for an opportunity that was saved by Hugo Lloris before playing an even better pass to send Pedro Neto Claro, the end responded with a career and twinkling turn before shooting in the first game of the first interior.
“Jackson knows that he has someone breathing his neck,” Wilson said. “That will raise your game to work on the things you need to work.”
Mikel believes that Senegal’s international will take some displacements. “Let’s not forget that Nicolas Jackson will be the main man,” he said.
“You just need to work in its end. It will still be the guy who begins the season. If he is not scoring, Delap has his chance.
“It is the way it works: healthy competition is very important.”
