Gary Lineker loves Aston Villa player 'who's got it all' and could soon be world class
Story updated
The story in brief
31-second readGary Lineker knows a striker when he sees one - and Aston Villa may have a future "world class" one on their hands in Nicolas Jackson .
Jackson arrived at Villa Park from Chelsea in the summer for a fee of around £47.5million, rising to £65m with add-ons. The Senegal international will have to tick various boxes in order to trigger those clauses, though he is already on his way to doing so.
He has five goals in his first seven Premier League and Champions League matches combined for the Villans. Jackson's downfall has often been his consistency, but Lineker believes he has a chance to put that right under Unai Emery when selected regularly.
