Big transfer fee? Jackson: "I know what’s expected of me" | OneFootball

The Bayern team is paying a proud loan fee of 16.5 million euros for striker Nicolas Jackson. The 24-year-old has now spoken about the considerable sum and emphasized: "I am aware of the responsibility."

Following the announcement of Nicolas Jackson's transfer, discussions around FC Bayern particularly focused on the high transfer fee for the forward. The Munich club paid a loan fee of 16.5 million euros for one year, covers the entire salary of the Senegalese player, and secured a purchase option worth 65 million euros.

But the player himself is apparently aware of the high sum. In an interview with tuttosport, Jackson said: "I want to thank FC Bayern for the trust they have shown in me from the beginning. I promise to give my all in every minute, every game, and every training session. I am aware of the responsibility that comes with this jersey."

Jackson: "I am here to work hard"

The versatile offensive player further elaborated: "I am here to work hard, help the team win, and improve every day. That is my mission." In this context, Jackson also spoke about the supposed differences between Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca and his new coach, Vincent Kompany.

"To be honest, I don't like to compare coaches with each other. Both have their own style and work in different clubs and contexts. They were two top players, now they are two top coaches," Jackson emphasized.

He added: "I learned a lot from coach Maresca and I know that Vincent Kompany will also teach me a lot. I can't wait to play under him."

After the international break, the striker is expected in Munich and could make his debut against HSV at the Allianz Arena.
