Aston Villa remain interested in signing Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea, but a loan deal for the forward is not an option.
Unai Emery is open to a reunion with Jackson having worked with the Senegalese striker at former club Villarreal.
Any move for Jackson would need to be a permanent transfer, however, following Aston Villa's signing of Alejandro Garnacho from Chelsea earlier this month.
Premier League rules dictate that clubs can only have a maximum of one player on loan from the same Premier League club, with Garnacho fulfilling that quota from Chelsea.
Jackson spent the 2025/26 season on loan at Bayern Munich and scored 11 goals in 34 games as the German side won a domestic double.
