Newcastle are stepping up plans to sign a new striker after struggling to replace Alexander Isak. Nicolas Jackson and Liam Delap have emerged as the leading options, with the club viewing both Chelsea forwards as realistic alternatives rather than attempting to sign both. Newcastle’s lack of trust in current options was reflected by using Anthony Gordon and Will Osula centrally against Barcelona. Jackson and Delap are both seen as attainable because neither has fully secured a long-term role at Chelsea, while the Magpies continue assessing which profile best fits their rebuild.

Kompany stays vague on Nicolas Jackson future as Bayern loan exit talk grows

February 2026

Vincent Kompany said Bayern are “very happy” with Nicolas Jackson but would not confirm any summer decision, with reports suggesting he is unlikely to be signed permanently and may return to Chelsea. Jackson is on a season-long loan with conditions tied to appearances and minutes, but his usage has been limited and he did not feature in the 3-2 win over Frankfurt. Kompany pushed any decision to end-of-season talks between player and clubs.

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.

Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany admitted he spoke with loanee Nicolas Jackson to gain insights on Chelsea ahead of their Champions League clash. The striker joined Bayern from Chelsea this season and could now help unlock tactical advantages against his parent club. Kompany said he has already studied “40 Chelsea games” but welcomed Jackson’s input to refine Bayern’s preparation. Familiar with Enzo Maresca’s methods, Kompany stressed execution will depend on players showing “personality” in decisive moments, with Bayern determined to impose themselves in Europe.

Hamann: Chelsea “exploited” Bayern on Jackson loan

Hamann says Chelsea leveraged Bayern’s late-window striker scramble, extracting a €16m loan fee and a £70m option for Nicolas Jackson. Bayern pivoted to Jackson after missing Nick Woltemade (joined Newcastle for £65m) while future-planning behind 32-year-old Harry Kane. Bayern’s urgency post-Woltemade empowered Chelsea at the table. Jackson’s option looks steep given sub-20-goal seasons, but it buys Bayern a stopgap with upside while they reassess long-term No.9 succession. The move reflects scarcity at elite striker level and deadline-pressure premiums.
