After Jackson transfer: Bayern bosses happy with the squad | OneFootball

The Bayern squad for the 2025/26 season was completed on Deadline Day with the transfer of Nicolas Jackson. Now, the Bayern bosses are apparently satisfied with the current team.

Until the last day of the transfer period, discussions about the Bayern squad continued. The Bayern stars - including Harry Kane - saw the squad as too thin. In particular, the Munich team lacked offensive players, as Max Eberl also explained. In the end, they were able to sign Nicolas Jackson, an offensive player.

Sky now reports that there is internal satisfaction with the squad after the late signing of Jackson. Sports Director Max Eberl was repeatedly criticized. Uli Hoeneß also came under fire after his public statement that Bayern should only sign loan players.

Kompany significantly involved in Jackson deal

Interesting: The English Sun revealed that Vincent Kompany was significantly involved in the Jackson deal. Kompany reportedly tried to sign Jackson when he was still a coach at Anderlecht. Jackson is determined to finally work with him.

Kompany spoke with the player before the original loan agreement was made and this personal touch convinced Jackson to reject a last-minute offer from Juventus Turin, it is said.

Contacts from Jackson's environment underline that his camp fully supports him and has done everything in the last 48 hours to get the deal done, according to the Sun.

However, it was definitely not a cheap deal for Bayern. A proud 16.5 million euros is being transferred by FCB to the Blues for the one-year loan. In addition, Bayern is taking over the player's full salary. The purchase option is also 65 million euros. FC Chelsea paid around 37 million euros for the striker's services in the summer of 2023.
