First team training: Nicolas Jackson gets started at FC Bayern | OneFootball

The countdown to the Bundesliga home game against Hamburger SV is on – and Nicolas Jackson is right in the middle of it. The 24-year-old new signing from FC Chelsea trained with his new teammates at Säbener Straße for the first time on Thursday.

After signing his contract with the German record champions, the striker initially still played with the Senegalese national team in the World Cup qualification. In the 3:2 victory against the DR Congo, Jackson even scored a goal. Back in Munich he now joined team training with other national players like Harry Kane and Luis Díaz.

Under the watchful eye of coach Vincent Kompany, the team completed an intensive unit. Jackson showed himself to be eager and committed, appearing well integrated despite the strains of the international trip. In particular, his interaction with Kane and Díaz suggested that the striker could immediately offer new options in the offensive for Bayern.

Official presentation on Friday

Jackson will be officially introduced in a press talk on Friday. The Munich team wants to showcase their last-minute transfer also in the media before he possibly makes his debut in the FC Bayern jersey on Saturday. Then, the record champions will host HSV for the first North-South classic in over seven years.

After four victories in four compulsory games, FCB wants to continue their flawless record. Kompany hopes that Jackson will become an additional weapon in the attack in the short term – be it as a joker or perhaps even from the start. For the new signing, the duel with HSV could be the first step to prove himself in Munich.

Fans can look forward to seeing how quickly the striker will fit into the Bayern game. One thing is clear: The starting signal has been given – Nicolas Jackson has officially arrived.
