Shock move: Chelsea set to pull the plug on Bayern’s Jackson transfer! | OneFootball

Nicolas Jackson was reportedly on the verge of a move to FC Bayern, according to media reports. Now, this appears to be in jeopardy. The reason: An injury in the Chelsea squad.

Nicolas Jackson boarded a private jet in London with his advisors on Saturday and set off for Munich. Sky UK has already released a video from the runway. Now, it seems the striker could be heading back to the English capital.

David Ornstein from The Athletic now reports that Chelsea has informed Bayern that they will not proceed with the loan of Nicolas Jackson following today's injury to Liam Delap. The club has reportedly already told Jackson to fly back to London.

On Saturday afternoon, FC Chelsea recorded a bitter injury with Liam Delap's injury in the 2:0 victory over FC Fulham. After the match, coach Enzo Maresca was asked whether Nicolas Jackson's loan to FC Bayern could be reversed following Delap's injury today.

Maresca replied: "I just finished the game, came here and have no idea. We will sit down now and see what happens. Honestly, I have no idea."

Report: Jackson camp rejects return

But the case takes further curious turns. Senegalese journalist Papa Mahmoud Gueye reports that the Jackson side has rejected Chelsea's demand. The striker is currently in Munich to undergo a medical examination before signing with Bayern.

Transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio also reports that Chelsea has asked Jackson to return to London. However, the player reportedly wants to move to FC Bayern, but the Blues currently have no intention of signing the transfer documents and letting him go.

Jackson pushed for Bayern move

Bitter for the Blues: Maresca fears that Liam Delap could be out for up to eight weeks due to the thigh injury he sustained against Fulham. "It was his thigh, (he ran) at full speed. Hopefully it won't take long, but with such injuries it can take six to eight weeks," he told TNT Sports.

Jackson reportedly pushed for the move to Munich himself. With the Senegalese, sporting director Max Eberl would have fulfilled coach Vincent Kompany's most urgent wish. An offensive player who combines pace, physicality and flexibility. Jackson can be used both in the center forward and on the wings and is supposed to complement the offensive axis around Harry Kane, Luis Diaz and Michael Olise.
