FC Bayern has set their sights on Nicolas Jackson. The Munich team wants to lure the Chelsea striker to Munich - but the deal is proving to be complicated. An offer is on the table, several competitors are involved, and Chelsea is weighing its options.
According to information from the English and Irish news portal PA Media, Bayern has submitted an official loan offer for Jackson. The approach aims for a one-year commitment without an obligation to buy - a model that corresponds to the current transfer policy of the German record champions.
Chelsea, on the other hand, continues to prefer a permanent solution. According to the Daily Mail, the Londoners would only be willing to agree to a loan if a mandatory purchase option for next summer is contractually stipulated. For Bayern, this would be exactly the sticking point - neither a permanent transfer nor a loan with an obligation to buy is an option in the current transfer phase. In addition, GiveMeSport reports that the Londoners would demand an additional fee of 11.5 million euros for a possible loan with an obligation to buy.
Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano reports that there were nevertheless further negotiations between the two clubs on Wednesday. Previously, Sky had also reported further talks between the player's side and the Munich team. However, a final agreement is still pending - as is the case with Chelsea, who has so far been unyielding.
The reason for this is not only the financial demands. According to BBC Sport, following the loan of Aarón Anselmino to Borussia Dortmund, the Blues only have one more international loan spot available - which is to be allocated specifically.
At the same time, the Munich team is not alone in their interest. Newcastle United and Aston Villa are also considering Jackson. While Newcastle is waiting for a decision on departure candidate Alexander Isak, Villa, according to English media, is hesitating because of the demanded transfer fee.
FC Bayern sees in Jackson a flexible solution for several problem areas. The Senegal national player can be used both in the center forward position and on the wings - exactly where the Munich team urgently needs reinforcement after the departures of Coman and Sané.
There are still just under five days left until the transfer deadline. Whether the move goes ahead in time now depends primarily on Chelsea's willingness to compromise on the conditions.
