Club career


Jackson started his career with Casa Sports, being a part of the first team during the 2018–19 season.[3] He was also named man of the match in a 1–1 draw against AS Pikine on 16 November 2018.[4]

In September 2019, Jackson agreed to a contract with La Liga side Villarreal CF,[5][6] being assigned to the Juvenil A squad. On 5 October of the following year, after finishing his formation, he was loaned to Segunda División side CD Mirandés for the 2020–21 season.[7]

Jackson made his professional debut on 18 October 2020, coming on as a second-half substitute for Antonio Caballero in a 0–0 home draw against RCD Mallorca.[8] He scored his first professional goal on 28 November, netting the opener in a 1–1 home draw against CD Castellón.[9]

Upon returning, Jackson played for Villarreal's B-team in Primera División RFEF before making his first team – and La Liga – debut on 3 October 2021, replacing Arnaut Danjuma late into a 2–0 home win over Real Betis. He scored his first goal in the top tier on 13 August of the following year, netting the opener in a 3–0 away success over Real Valladolid.

On 26 August 2022, Jackson and teammate Álex Baena were promoted to the main squad.[10]


International career


Born in the Gambia, Jackson was raised in Senegal and is a dual citizen.[11] He represented Senegal at under-20 level,[12][13] receiving his first call-up in November 2018.[14]
