Nicolas Jackson, Drogba's heir?
Chelsea's new striker has now inherited Chelsea legend Didier Drogba's number 15 shirt. But that's not the only thing that brings the Senegalese forward closer to the Ivorian icon. From the outset of his preparations, Nicolas Jackson has displayed a very convincing level of play, particularly in his pivot play and efficiency, which remind "Blues" fans of their beloved.
"I love and respect the boss Didier, of course. But I want to continue at Chelsea and do more than him," declared Nicolas Jackson before the start of the season. He has made no secret of his ambitions, and now it's time to get out on the pitch and spearhead Chelsea's attack in the wake of his partner Christopher Nkunku's injury.

Brighton has many players with great potential, but Simon Adingra can count on his speed, his efficiency in front of goal and his technique to impose himself.
Bénie Traoré, taking over from Iliman Ndiaye?The challenge and expectations may be high for a Sheffield United team lacking its best players. Author of 12 goals and 3 assists in 14 games in the Swedish league, the 20-year-old centre-forward is the promoted side's main attacking recruit for €4m. A player with great potential, Bénie Traoré can make his mark in a club that will be fighting for survival, even if good performances will be less obvious.
