Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has hit back at former Super Eagles captain John Mikel Obi, telling him to "shut his mouth" following recent criticism. Jackson expressed his frustration on Instagram after Mikel Obi's harsh remarks about Chelsea's strikers.
The tension between the two players escalated after Jackson's performance on Sunday, where the Senegalese forward scored within 98 seconds, helping Chelsea to a resounding victory over Wolves. Jackson also assisted Cole Palmer, who scored to make it 2-1 in the first half.
This exchange comes just a week after Mikel Obi publicly criticized the 23-year-old striker following Chelsea's 2-0 defeat to Manchester City, questioning his suitability for the team. In response, Jackson tagged Mikel Obi in an Instagram Story post after the Wolves game, writing,
Quote
"Shut your mouth, don’t talk sh*t, we are killing ourselves for Africa."
Jackson's response underscores the growing tension between the current and former Chelsea players, adding a personal edge to the ongoing discussions about the club's attacking options.
