More Details
Mundo Deportivo are reporting that Barca are keeping tabs on the 21-year-old who is out of contract at the end of the season.
Jackson appears to be a target in case Ousmane Dembele does not renew his deal again.
The Frenchman only signed a two-year extension last summer and so will be heading into the final year of his latest deal at the end of the season.
Jackson has been enjoying regular minutes with Villarreal and has two goals and three assists for the Yellow Submarine so far this season.
He tends to play on right but can operate anywhere across the attack, which is a plus, and his status as a soon-to-be free agent will also attract Barca.
Aston Villa are also thought to be keen on signing Jackson. Unai Emery is hoping to tempt the forward to England after swapping Villarreal for Villa.

Meanwhile…
Barcelona have offered updates on Eric Garcia and Jules Kounde after both players were forced off during Saturday’s win over Valencia.
The Catalans have confirmed the nature of both injuries but have not said how much time either player will miss.
However, it seem both players have only suffered minor muscle strains and should be available for next Saturday’s La Liga match against Almeria.
