Chelsea fans, are you ready for Jackson’s exit?
Quick Read
Bayern Munich are moving fast to land Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson, with the Senegalese forward already agreeing personal terms with the German champions.
The Bavarians are on Chelsea’s neck for Nicolas Jackson, and all signs point to the striker packing for Germany soon.
According to reports from Christian Falk of BILD, Jackson has given the green light to join Bayern this summer, leaving the Bundesliga giants to hammer out details with Chelsea over a loan move.
Jackson’s future at Stamford Bridge looks shaky under new boss Enzo Maresca. Once tipped to lead Chelsea’s attack, the 23-year-old has slipped down the pecking order after the arrivals of Joao Pedro and Liam Delap.
The Blues slapped a £70 million ($94m) price tag on Jackson, a figure that scared off interest from Arsenal and Aston Villa earlier in the window. But Bayern, desperate to sharpen their frontline, are now testing Chelsea’s resolve with a loan approach.
Chelsea, meanwhile, are still chasing RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons, but know they need player exits to fund that deal — making Jackson’s potential switch to Germany one to keep tabs on in the coming days.
