He Tweeted: “Chelsea are one of a number of clubs tracking Charlton’s 18-year-old striker Mason Burstow.
“However, another Premier League club has made an offer for the teen star who is already playing League One football.
“Burstow could move on before the deadline on Monday night.”
The Blues will be hoping to be in Charlton’s good books as they loaned wing-back Juan Castillo to the club.
Speaking about Burstow earlier this month, Jackson said: “With every step up that he makes, he’s having an impact, so it’s fantastic for him because he’s a really humble young man who’s very respectful around the group.
“The lads respect him because of what he brings to the party and he deserves his place in the team. He deserved his start and now he’s rewarded us with a goal.”
