The change from Nicolas Jackson to Munich already seemed fixed. Then Chelsea’s FC suddenly put his veto. But the deal doesn’t seem to be from the table yet.
Does Nicolas Jackson still change to Bayern? As the Pay TV broadcaster Sky reports, the 24-year-old continues in Munich and is still hoping for a change to the German record champions. Together with Bayern, the offensive player continues to push the transfer.
Talks with those responsible for FC Chelsea, Jackson’s association, are scheduled for Sunday morning. Sky transfer expert Florian Plettenberg wrote on the platform X that the deal is currently on ice, but has not yet failed completely.
The portal “The Athletic” had previously reported on the burst business. Accordingly, Chelsea stopped the change due to Liam Delap’s muscle injury, which he suffered in the 2-0 home win against Fulham on Saturday. It is expected to fail for several weeks.
Bavaria’s sports director Max Eberl had explained after the 3-2 victory at FC Augsburg on Saturday evening: Chelsea had informed the Munich team that the club wanted to have the player back-although the previous day was fundamentally agreed. “Now is the situation that the boy is in Munich and that we send the boy back,” said Eberl.
Maybe the next amazing turn in the transfer saga may now occur. Because as “The Athletic” reports on Sunday morning, FC Chelsea refrained from its transfer veto and is now considering a sale of the Senegalese-however, a loan business originally planned by FC Bayern is excluded. The background is that Chelsea will possibly commit a striker himself until the transfer of transfer this Monday.
Jackson landed in Munich on Saturday afternoon. After the medical check, the offensive man should sign his contract with the Bundesliga club. According to media reports, both clubs had already agreed on a loan with a fee of 15 million euros. In addition, a purchase option of over 65 million euros has been agreed for the coming season.
At FC Bayern, after several departures, acute needs in the offensive area. The club’s supervisory board had already approved a loan business.
