Nicolas Jackson’s Future Uncertain as Chelsea Looks to Sell
Chelsea is preparing to find new homes for striker Nicolas Jackson, as he is unlikely to remain at Bayern Munich after his loan period ends.
The forward from Senegal has not been able to make a significant impact at Chelsea, failing to capitalize on an encouraging debut at Stamford Bridge. Consequently, he was sent on loan to Bayern Munich this season, but it appears the German club will not exercise their option to sign him permanently.
Reports indicate that Jackson will attract interest from several Premier League teams, including Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Everton. Additionally, international clubs like Atletico Madrid and Napoli may also consider him.
Where Will Nicolas Jackson Go After Chelsea?
Aston Villa, in particular, could benefit from signing Jackson as they look for a long-term alternative to Ollie Watkins, who is aging.
Insights into Nicolas Jackson’s Situation
With Bayern unlikely to keep him, Chelsea is expected to actively seek a buyer for Jackson. A source noted, “It’s very improbable that he will stay at Bayern. His loan included a €65 million mandatory buy clause, but it’s conditioned on performance targets that he will likely not achieve.”
Another insider mentioned, “In the Premier League, Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Everton are closely monitoring Jackson’s situation. Additionally, Atletico Madrid and Napoli are potential options for him, and Chelsea will be eager to find someone to take him off their roster.”
