Nicolas Jackson
November 2025
Jackson’s Bayern stay will almost certainly end as a straight loan, since he cannot reach the appearance threshold that would trigger a £56.2m obligation to buy. AFCON absences and limited starts mean the 40-start clause is now mathematically impossible. The Senegal striker has only six qualifying starts and will miss more games while on international duty, leaving Bayern with no automatic purchase requirement. Despite a fractured relationship with Chelsea and Enzo Maresca, his agent still hopes to negotiate a permanent move away from Stamford Bridge.
