apologize for his red card against Newcastle.
The Senegalese forward was dismissed during the first half of Chelsea’s 2-0 defeat at St James’ Park after VAR flagged an incident in which he elbowed Sven Botman.

Jackson has not expressed regret to his teammates over the red card but is instead focused on making amends by delivering a strong performance in the upcoming Conference League final.

Chelsea will play United on Friday before wrapping up their league campaign with a match against Forest.
Jackson is set to return on May 28 when Chelsea faces Real Betis in the Conference League final.
