According to the Manchester Evening News, former Chelsea coach Di Matteo believes that Chelsea dominates Manchester United's bid for Jackson, and Chelsea asks for 80 million pounds.
Manchester United signed Matthews Cunha for £62.5 million this summer and signed Mbemo from Brentford for £71 million. However, after failing to chase Yorkres and Ekitic, Amorin is still determined to sign a center.
It is reported that Jackson's agent has negotiated with Manchester United officials about a possible transfer, and Chelsea hopes to recover £80 million from the deal.

Di Matteo said: "Chelsea is in a good situation, they won't be forced to sell players. They have a lot of players for sale in the market and they can raise some money from it, so they are not in a hurry to sell. Their financial situation is good, so it really depends on how much other clubs are willing to pay."
Di Matteo added: "Jackson will be at the attention of some clubs, he is a very good striker. He can score goals and has gained some experience in England now. I expect he will join Manchester United, and there are other clubs looking for him."
This summer, Chelsea brought in Joao Pedro and Drapp on the front line, so Jackson's future at Chelsea has been in serious uncertainty. It is reported that although AC Milan and Naples have expressed interest in him, there are reports that Jackson is more willing to stay in the Premier League.
