Chelsea Halts Jackson Loan to Bayern, Seeks Sale as Deadline Nears

Bayern's loans-only mandate conflicts with Chelsea's shift to a sale.

Overview

  • Nicolas Jackson flew to Munich for a medical before Chelsea revoked permission after Liam Delap sustained a muscle injury and instructed the striker to return.
  • Bayern sporting director Max Eberl said no contract was signed, the club will send Jackson back if required, and only about 48 hours remain before the window closes.
  • Multiple outlets reported a proposed €15 million loan fee with a €65 million purchase option, but Chelsea is now pushing for a permanent transfer instead.
  • Bayern's supervisory board has limited incoming business to loans this window, making a straight purchase difficult under current directives.
  • Jackson and his representatives remain in Munich pressing for the move while the clubs continue talks ahead of Monday evening's deadline.
