Jackson reveals: these are the greatest Bayern legends for him | OneFootball

Without having played a single minute for FC Bayern yet, Nicolas Jackson talks about his personal heroes. In a Q&A session at the club, he offers private insights.

During a Q&A format at FC Bayern, the 24-year-old answered a series of personal questions – from favorite food to childhood idol. When asked about the greatest club legends, his choice was clear: “Oliver Kahn, Thomas Müller, Lewandowski. If you have a few, I have many.”

Off the pitch, Jackson also revealed what moves him. “My favorite food is Tiabujen. It comes from Senegal.” Series like “Cassidy, Papel, Grandmother” are among his favorites, and musically he relies on rhythms from the continent: “I listen to Afrobeats. I have a few.”

Jackson names two childhood idols

When asked about his first football jersey, Jackson didn’t have to think long: “Cristiano.” No wonder he also named him when it came to his childhood idol: “Cristiano and Neymar.” What has shaped his career the most so far? “Signing with Villarreal.”

At the end of the Q&A session, the attacking player presented himself as both confident and charming. Who would he like to be for a day? “One name: Nicolas Jackson.”

Transfer at the last minute

The fact that Jackson will soon be wearing the FC Bayern jersey was not always a given. The transfer from FC Chelsea was on the verge of falling through after one of the Blues’ strikers got injured. But after Marc Guiu was brought back, the deal was finally completed.

The deal is a one-year loan with an option to buy. Bayern will initially pay a loan fee of 16.5 million euros, and the transfer fee in the summer of 2026 could be as high as 65 million euros. BILD reports that the purchase option will automatically be triggered after a certain number of appearances.

One thing is clear: Jackson himself was eager for the move. His agent had already emphasized beforehand that they would fight for the transfer until the end. Now, the Senegalese player’s wish has become reality – and the Munich adventure begins.
