Nicolas Jackson stole the spotlight during Chelsea’s impressive 3-0 victory over West Ham with his lively new goal celebration, inspired by the legendary Michael Jackson. After netting two goals in the first half, Jackson showcased his dance moves, delighting fans and teammates alike.
In his post-match comments, Jackson explained the meaning behind his celebration, saying, “It’s to remember the legend [Michael] Jackson. I was dreaming about it two days ago, so I just did it.” This fun homage added an entertaining touch to his performance, as the Blues climbed to second in the Premier League, if only temporarily.
While Cole Palmer also made headlines with his iconic “cold” celebration last season, Jackson’s tribute to the King of Pop made a memorable statement on the pitch. Chelsea fans will surely be eager to see more of this creative flair in future matches.
