Bayern open fresh talks for Jackson: This could still scupper the deal | OneFootball

Apparently, there have been new talks between FC Bayern and Chelsea about Nicholas Jackson. However, the deal could still fall through.

FC Bayern continues to work intensively on signing Nicolas Jackson. As Sky reports, the Munich-based team held further talks with FC Chelsea on Thursday.

According to the report, the plan is to loan the Senegalese player with an option to buy afterwards. The negotiations are said to be well advanced, yet the Blues are still hesitating. The reason for this is the hope that another club will make a high offer for a permanent transfer at short notice.

The transfer of Christopher Nkunku to AC Milan has additionally influenced the situation. According to consistent reports, Chelsea and Milan have verbally agreed on a deal that paves the way for the Frenchman to Italy. For Bayern, this means: Chelsea could now be more open to a loan of Jackson, as with Nkunku's departure a substantial transfer fee of over 35 million euros is already secured.

Jackson has a long-term contract with Chelsea

Exactly such a loan model is favored by the German record champion. According to the directive of honorary president Uli Hoeneß, only loan deals can currently be concluded. A purchase obligation, as initially suggested by Chelsea, is rejected by Bayern.

However, the competition remains large. In addition to Munich, several Premier League clubs are also said to be in talks with Chelsea, according to international media. Aston Villa in particular is considered a serious competitor. In the end, it could be decisive whether the Londoners prefer the offer of an English rival or get used to the Munich loan model.

Jackson himself is said to be interested in a move to Germany. With his dynamism, physique, and international experience, the 24-year-old would fit perfectly into the profile required by sporting director Max Eberl. In 81 competitive matches for Chelsea, the striker has so far scored 30 goals and provided twelve assists, and he also won the Conference League and the Club World Cup with the Blues. His contract runs until 2033 - another argument for Bayern to opt for a loan.
