Transfer to be sealed today? Bayern keen to wrap up Jackson deal quickly | OneFootball

FC Bayern is working tirelessly to finalize the transfer of Nicolas Jackson.

According to information from Sky, the deal is expected to be sealed either today, Friday, or at the latest by Saturday morning.

The plan is for a loan deal with an option to buy - however, without a mandatory purchase afterwards. The loan fee for the 24-year-old striker could therefore amount to up to 15 million euros.

Everything has long been settled with the player's side: Jackson wants to go to Munich and is ready to join the German record champions for at least one season. Bayern will also take over the complete annual salary of around six million euros, which means the total package will cost the Munich team more than 20 million euros.

Bayern Wants to Strengthen Offense

The transfer is of the highest priority for Sporting Director Max Eberl, after the search for offensive reinforcement had recently stalled. Jackson brings the desired profile: dynamism, physicality and the ability to be used flexibly in the offense. With 30 goals and twelve assists in 81 competitive matches for Chelsea, he has proven that he can also compete at an international level.

The deal is not yet final, as Chelsea continues to hesitate in the hope that a short-term offer for a permanent transfer will come in. However, Bayern is now pushing for a quick decision. Eberl and his team want to prevent other clubs from intervening at the last minute and jeopardizing the transfer.

Nevertheless, the signs point to completion: Jackson is currently the hottest candidate for FCB and could soon be introduced as a new offensive player.

A conclusion in the coming hours is possible - which would send an important signal from Bayern just before the end of the transfer period.
