Speaking to the media, Gallas said: “Chelsea made a mistake by not signing a contract with Cristiano Ronaldo. He is ready to sign a contract, and Chelsea is a suitable club for him. Everyone knows that Ronaldo is important. How important is he in the dressing room? He has a winning mentality and that can benefit the team. That was a mistake by Chelsea”.

Last January, Ronaldo joined Al Nassr on a free basis after his contract was liquidated by MU. The reason came from CR7’s globally shocking interview with Piers Morgan, in which he openly criticized both the club and coach Erik ten Hag. So far, Ronaldo has only won one title with Al Nassr, which is the Arab Champions Cup, but this is only considered a friendly tournament.

As for Chelsea, they have been playing inconsistently since then, especially facing countless difficulties in scoring goals. This season, Nicolas Jackson is Chelsea’s main attacker, but often disappoints by wasting opportunities. So far, Jackson has only scored 9 goals in 24 appearances for Chelsea in the 2023/24 Premier League.

Referring to Jackson, Gallas said that the Senegalese striker needs to perform well in the final months of the season, otherwise he will be replaced.

“We have to see how many goals Nicolas Jackson will score, currently he only has 9 goals. If Jackson cannot achieve 15 goals or more in the Premier League, then Chelsea needs a top striker because right now because they are not there.

Nicolas Jackson must prove and take advantage of his opportunity now. He needs to work very hard and become more stable. That’s what it takes to play at a big club like Chelsea”, Gallas – a defender who spent 5 years with Chelsea (2001-2006), concluded.
