After just one year, Nicolas Jackson is about to leave Munich again. Two top clubs are apparently interested.

Last summer, FC Bayern had to fight for the services of Nicolas Jackson for a long time. When the attacker completed his medical check in Munich, Chelsea wanted to cancel the deal at short notice. The clubs agreed at the last minute and the Senegalese was allowed to move to Munich on loan. However, a long-term contract is unlikely to be concluded.

Max Eberl recently announced in the “current sports studio” that Bayern would not use the negotiated purchase option. This is reportedly between 60 and 65 million euros. Theoretically, the FCB could negotiate with Chelsea about the continued employment of Jackson even without the option, but according to the pay-TV broadcaster Sky, this is currently not planned.

As things stand, the attacker will have to return to London at the end of the season. He is under contract there until 2033. And yet Jackson could move on straight away in the summer. According to the report, two top Italian clubs, Juventus Turin and AC Milan, are interested in the Senegalese. Above all, the interest of the people of Turin is “very concrete”.

However, even a loan from Jackson might not be cheap for the Italians. Bayern have transferred 16.5 million euros to London to sign the attacker for one year. According to Sky, they also pay Jackson a salary of ten million euros. The attacker’s value is unlikely to have fallen significantly during his time at FCB. As Harry Kane’s representative, he has scored ten goals and prepared four more in 30 games across all competitions. This means he is directly involved in a Bayern goal every 82 minutes.
