“He can’t give Chelsea top4 or win the league” “Better to replace” – Former Chelsea player Paul Parker urged Enzo Maresca to make this one big signing to win the league
Paul Parker, a former right-back for Chelsea, has called on the club to acquire a new striker over the summer if they are genuinely aiming to compete for the Premier League title.
Nicolas Jackson has netted nine goals this season and has shown a commendable work rate, but Parker thinks the Blues require a more clinical option in attack.
“Chelsea need a centre forward who can take them forward to win,” Parker said.
“Jackson is a hard worker, but they need someone with more edge, like a Drogba type player.”
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has praised Jackson’s contributions, acknowledging his nine goals but also admitting there’s room for improvement. Whether the Blues will move for a new striker in the summer remains uncertain, but Parker’s comments highlight growing calls for a more prolific forward at Stamford Bridge.
