US EditionBayern Munich Close to Landing Chelsea Star After Dramatic Deadline Day Twist
Chelsea and Bayern Munich have agreed on a loan deal for Nicolas Jackson with a mandatory purchase clause worth around £65 million, resolving earlier transfer complications.
- Chelsea planned to loan 24-year-old striker Nicolas Jackson to Bayern Munich in a £13 million season-long loan with a £56.3 million option to buy.
- The move stalled after Chelsea recalled Jackson to London following a hamstring injury to striker Liam Delap in their 2-0 win over Fulham.
- Jackson and his agent Ali Barat remained in Munich, attempting to revive the deal before Monday’s 7pm transfer deadline amid Chelsea’s attack crisis.
- Former player Frank Leboeuf criticized Chelsea’s handling as “absolutely disrespectful” for recalling Jackson after loaning him out while injured.
- If completed, the transfer would provide Bayern with needed forward options and allow Jackson to continue developing away from Chelsea’s current plans.
