Jackson saga rumbles on: now his agent speaks out | OneFootball

Nicolas Jackson is still waiting for his move to FC Bayern – and is still stuck in Munich. Now, his agent speaks publicly for the first time about the deadlocked situation.

It remains unclear whether the transfer of the 24-year-old to Munich will still succeed. After Chelsea abruptly stopped the deal, Jackson continues to hope for a turnaround. His agent, Diomansy Kamara, commented on the situation to BILD: “We still hope that the deal will go through. If we had no hope, we wouldn't be here anymore.”

The situation remains difficult for Bayern. Instead of the originally planned loan, Chelsea now wants to sell the striker permanently. According to information from Sky, a permanent transfer was proposed to the record champions – an option that is currently not being considered in Munich. The sports management has internally committed to loan deals until the end of the transfer window. Sky Sports from England also confirmed that Chelsea is likely only willing to agree to a permanent transfer.

Jackson himself has clearly signaled his desire to move. On Saturday, he traveled to Munich to undergo the medical check before Chelsea suddenly backed out. The reason: Liam Delap, planned as a striker backup for the Blues, got injured shortly before the deal was finalized.

Will another striker open the door for Jackson?

As Max Eberl explained on Saturday evening: “Chelsea informed us that they want the player back – after we reached an agreement yesterday and received permission to conduct the medical examination. Now the situation is that the player is in Munich, and we have to send him back. That's the current state of affairs, I can't look into the future.”

Whether Chelsea will quickly reorient itself in its search for a striker remains open. According to The Athletic, the club is exploring possible alternatives – including Conrad Harder is reportedly in focus. However, the Portuguese is reportedly close to a move to RB Leipzig, further complicating the situation. Currently, there is little indication that the Londoners will still loan out Jackson.

Jackson and his agents remain in Munich and have not given up hope. Until now, they had refrained from making public statements – but Kamara has now sent a clear signal. Time is running out, but against Bayern. The transfer window closes on Monday evening at 6 PM.
