Nicolas Jackson: finally an agreement between Bayern Munich and Chelsea for the Senegalese striker? | OneFootball

The future of the Senegalese forward continues to dominate transfer news headlines.

Nicolas Jackson / Chelsea

Nicolas Jackson and FC Bayern Munich have reportedly reached an agreement over a loan move for the Senegalese striker. The news, first reported by Sky Sport and backed by several other outlets, marks a major development in a saga where Chelsea are eager to offload the former Sevilla player before the transfer window closes.

The Senegal international has been strongly linked with Bayern Munich in recent days. Nicolas Jackson is no longer part of Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca’s plans, and among his potential destinations, Bayern Munich have emerged as frontrunners to secure him on loan. According to the same sources, the German champions have agreed to cover the entirety of the player’s wages, with Jackson still under contract at Chelsea FC. This demonstrates Bayern’s genuine interest in the explosive talent, who arrived in London from Villarreal in 2023.

Negotiations ongoing with Chelsea

Although a deal between the player and Bayern is now in place, both clubs still need to iron out the final details of the loan. Talks are at an advanced stage, and the Munich hierarchy hope to wrap up the deal in the coming days—or even hours.

Seeking additional firepower up front to support Harry Kane and inject more dynamism into their attack, Bayern Munich see Nicolas Jackson as a valuable asset for his pace and directness. The 24-year-old, while inconsistent with the Blues, has shown undeniable quality in the Premier League. A move to Bavaria under the guidance of Vincent Kompany could help him rediscover his confidence.
