Everton Monitor Nicolas Jackson as Bayern Cool on £70m Buy Option

Reports of a push for a reduced fee leave the on-loan striker’s next destination uncertain.

Overview

  • Everton are reported to be tracking the Chelsea forward for a potential January move as they assess striker options.
  • Multiple reports say Bayern are increasingly unlikely to activate the reported £70m purchase clause and have held talks about lowering the price.
  • Jackson has two goals and one assist in his first 10 appearances for Bayern, where he is competing for minutes behind Harry Kane.
  • The 24-year-old has publicly said he feels at home in Munich, while contrasting coverage includes a Bild claim of a pre-agreed five-year deal that remains unconfirmed.
  • Everton are also looking at Ivan Toney and have been linked with Richarlison, with Jackson viewed by club figures as a “Moyes-type” centre-forward.
