For a long time, FC Bayern was looking for an alternative to Harry Kane in a storm. Now he has found her. The new star comes from the Premier League.
FC Bayern has said that Nicolas Jackson has agreed to report. According to Pay TV broadcaster Sky, the Munich-based chelsea has agreed on a loan of the 24-year-old attacker-including the purchase option. This should be 65 million euros. The transfer expert Fabrizio Romano also confirms that the deal will take place.
The rental fee is 15 million euros after the Sky report, whereby the amount is paid in one rate and the salary is completely adopted by the German record champions. Bavaria’s sports director Max Eberl is said to have tried very hard to Jackson. The negotiations were accompanied by star consultant Ali Barat. Jackson is said to arrive in Munich today. His flight had already been booked yesterday.
The striker changed to London from the Spanish Club Villareal in 2023. At that time Chelsea paid 37 million euros for Jackson, who directly repaid confidence in his first season in the Premier League. The Senegalese scored 14 hits in the 2023/2024 season, scored five more goals. Last season Jackson scored ten more goals, plus five assists again.
The international is mainly used as a central attacker. With him, Bayern finally found a backup for Harry Kane. Until the end, the Englishman was the only real shock striker in the team that has already demonstrated its class internationally. Accordingly, a failure of Kanes would have been a bitter setback for Bayern title ambitions. Now the club has counteracted this scenario with Jackson and has another alternative to the offensive.
