“Here we go!” – Fabrizio Romano confirms huge Chelsea transfer, could be worth €80m | OneFootball

Bayern Munich and Chelsea have reached an agreement for Nicolas Jackson to join the German champions on an initial loan deal according to Fabrizio Romano.

Jackson was one of the players the Blues were looking to move on before the end of the window, and they’ve no managed that.

The 24-year-old has fallen down the pecking order following the arrival of both Liam Delap and Joao Pedro, and he seems set to embark on a new challenge.

Nicolas Jackson to join Bayern Munich on loan

Chelsea had initially valued Jackson at around £80m, but it became clear potential suitors weren’t going to pay that price, and they received no permanent offers.

The Blues then made it clear they were open to loan offers for Jackson under the right conditions, which included an obligation to buy and big loan fee.

Aston Villa had shown interest, but Jackson wanted to join Bayern Munich and Romano has now provided an update on the deal.

He took to X.com and said:

“EXCL: Nicolas Jackson to Bayern, here we go!

“Deal agreed with Chelsea on initial loan move.

“€15m loan fee for one season plus buy option clause not mandatory for €80m package and sell-on clause.

“Jackson, set to fly to Bavaria with his agent Ali Barat from Epic Sports.”

Jackson is in line to make his Bayern debut after the international break, and it will be interesting to see how he does this season.

Chelsea sign Facundo Buonanotte on loan

With Jackson now gone, Chelsea have added another attacker in the form of Brighton winger Facundo Buonanotte.
