There’s supposed to be a bushing that I don’t see. It would go inside the “hole” in the pulley cog and then it all would be sandwiched with the two large metal spacer-like things, and finally bolted together with the bolt that we see upside-down on your photo.
I’m pretty certain there NEEDS to be a bushing, it won’t rotate freely on the two spacers alone.
NOTE – there’s a tiny chance the bushing is already on the bolt, but I really don’t think it would be smaller or equal to the bolt’s visible thread size.

There is supposed to be a steel bushing in the center of the jockey wheel. That bushing is what should take the force of the bolt tightening and the plastic wheel should be able to spin on it.

There is normally a bushing. It is a low end wheel with no bearings.
Probably missing this small spacer.

You’re missing the sleeve that goes between the bolt and the wheel. See here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/122751693519
