BVB as a model? Bayern follow similar transfer strategy with Jackson | OneFootball

The Champions League duel with Chelsea FC is a special match for Nicolas Jackson. The striker is not only facing his former club, but is also part of an intriguing question about Bayern Munich’s future.

It was a tough negotiation before Nicolas Jackson actually landed in Munich. On deadline day, Bayern secured the services of the Senegalese forward on a one-season loan from Chelsea FC. The officially reported fee: 16.5 million euros. Uli Hoeneß recently revealed that the amount is actually lower: “If anyone is upset about the loan fee: He didn’t cost 16.5 million euros, because the player and his agent covered three million. That means the player costs 13.5 million.”

That’s not all: Hoeneß also commented on the mandatory purchase clause that is part of the deal. According to him, Jackson would have to make 40 starts for the clause to take effect. “He’ll never reach that, you don’t need to worry,” said the honorary president of the record champions.

A return to London is therefore highly unlikely. Agent Diomansy Kamara made it clear on Canal Plus: “Definitely not.” Instead, the focus is on the current season with FCB: “We want to have a good season with Bayern and then see what’s best for him. Bayern definitely has priority.”

A permanent solution for Jackson is therefore far from off the table. According to Sport BILD, there is an agreement between Bayern, Chelsea, and the player’s camp to renegotiate in the spring if the season is successful. Munich’s goal is to significantly reduce the fixed price of 65 million euros.

Borussia Dortmund showed this model can work last summer. With the transfer of Carney Chukwuemeka as well, the originally agreed purchase option was too high for the Black and Yellows. After lengthy negotiations, the fee dropped from 35 to 20 million euros—a success that could now serve as a blueprint for FCB.

For Bayern, a similar approach with Jackson would be an attractive scenario. The 24-year-old wants to prove himself in Munich and brings qualities like dynamism and versatility that enrich the offensive squad. At the same time, the bosses could gain time to find a financial solution outside of the rigid clause.
