On November 1, former Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly spoke about his former teammate Jackson.
Koulibaly said, “I hope he continues to score goals. We all know that for every striker, life is about scoring goals, and Nicolas is no exception. He has a good attitude and personality. For me, he will be Senegal’s story, just like Sadio Mané. I always tell him that he must follow in Mané’s footsteps. I hope he becomes the best player in Africa, why not the world? He has the talent, so everything is at his feet. Nicolas must believe he can do it. That is the most important thing. All players who have won the Ballon d’Or believed they could do it. They all thought they could win this trophy. So you have to put that belief into Nicolas’s mind.”
He added, “Of course, I won’t tell him to be selfish or neglect his teammates, but he must think about the Ballon d’Or. If you put that image in his mind, he can achieve it. That’s what I keep telling him.”
